I am glad that people are excited to go back to work. Many who didn’t value their jobs before are now raring to go back and start enjoying their jobs again.
The situation is still very complex and rapidly changing. As we navigate through a covid-infested world, we will all experience a high degree of inconveniences and difficulties like subjecting ourselves to regular rapid tests before entering the workplace to make sure we are not Corona V carriers.
