I'm IT at a mid sized bank. We've split our team up and half in one week while the others are remote, and vice versa the following week. All lobbies have been shuttered so there isn't any foot traffic aside from a few "by appointment" cases.
Not sure how long all of this will go on for, but I think our jobs should all be safe. Unless the markets totally crater and a bunch of worst case scenarios happen in succession.
My wife is a HS teacher, and the hoops she's expected to jump through until the end of the term is asinine. Students are told that no work done from this point on will hurt their grade, it can only improve it. So she has to do all of these lesson plans for a bunch of kids that wouldn't have put much effort in during a normal day. So a bunch of homework when it won't affect your grade? Yeah, those kids are going to buckle down and get serious instead of sitting on the couch in front of their Xstation or Playbox. They also have a lot of other duties they expect her to do. All while being promised that they will still get paid. That promise coming from this SI doesn't invoke a lot of warm fuzzies, so fingers crossed.
