This lockdown really put my work life into perspective

It’s funny how there was a time when I felt kind of miserable at my job. That was until I lost the job temporarily amidst this pandemic. I honestly miss how things were at the office. I miss hearing my friends grumble about how slow the shift is going. I miss hearing the boss tell stupid jokes that weren’t really funny. I miss hanging out with my buddies after work and getting a few drinks at the bar. I realize that my job was never really half bad when I really stop and think about everything. Sure, the work was tedious and boring, but it was what we had to do to make a living. Now, I would give just about anything to go back to work again. The temperature control settings were always fair and even the chairs were comfortable. I even remember when the boss announced that he invested in a UV air purification system for the workplace. He did this so that we would have improved air quality and be able to prevent the spread of harmful bacteria and viruses. I honestly think business should have continued on, but we weren’t considered essential by the government unfortunately. I wish we could have somehow worked remotely, but the boss said we didn’t have the resources to do that. I do think that if everybody had UV air purification systems like we had installed, people could feel a little more comfortable about not getting sick. I truly do hope we can go back to work again soon, I want to see all my friends and go back to normal life.
