Good Morning Folks

I hope you're all well. I have a 9 to 5 office job where I used to travel to and from my work place. However, since March we have been asked to work from home.

I am missing the usually office life (gossip/banter etc) and other general conversations. Is anyone else in the same situation?

What do you do to overcome this?

Can you suggest any 'zoom' meetings that I could join for social interaction?

Thanks in advance for your responses.

I work in office services. So I'm still going to offices but they are empty.

I miss casual workplace lechery. God, I miss casual workplace lechery.

This is not so much a jobs and employment question more a how can I find some people to talk to. Try some local meetup groups or similar.

I'm not missing office life during day shifts, however right now, 12 hour nights are a little boring WFH.
