When I started work for a local authority in 1996, I did a job share 2.5 days a week. At one point I was travelling around the country several times a month. Rather than go into the office to write up my reports, my manager gave me a lap top and suggested that I worked from home, All I had t o do was to give her warning that I would be at home on such a day and give my telephone details. I worked this way for a couple of years, Some weeks I was only in the office one day - usually on team day so could catch up with my colleagues. Although I have been retired some time, during Covid I kept in touch with my professional ex colleagues. They advised me that one team member a day was required in the office, the rest working from home. They felt that this was a good compromise. If I was still working, I would be happy to be in the office on alternate days. -
Hi, I just got a cat and was wondering if anyone had any Cattery recommendations for when we go on holiday? I’d prefer a cattery rather than having a pet sitter. Thanks in advance! -
Another recommendation for Aria - he came over on short notice before Christmas (so a bit of a delayed review) to help fix a pipe when some DIY went wrong. He was very helpful, quick to respond and sorted the problem efficiently. We’ll definitely use him again if needed!
