Work from Home- A funny intake

As the world is battling against the Novel Corona-virus, almost all the countries have instructed their citizens to Work from Home. This comes in the light that the said virus, spreads through contact and thus, if people were to remain quarantined or isolated inside their homes, there would be less chances of the spread of the pandemic.

While working from home can be not much of an issue for some people, there are others, whose working from home rather is dangerous and funny at the same time. In this blog I shall try to showcase the different scenarios that would be faced by people if they were to literally work from home.

When an Archaeologist is asked to work from from home he/she can be seen digging his/her entire house to find artefacts and something of historical importance.  

Salesman- he/she was found forcefully selling his/her old junk, clothes and other items to his/her parents and was seen to be persistently trying to convince them about its relevance and importance.

Loan recovery agent- he/she was seen beating his/her children for stealing candies from the jar and being unable to repay for the same.

Traffic policeman- While he/she was resting at home he/she came across an army of ants and was seen giving directions and guiding them to their desired location.

Media-person- When she was at home her husband was having a shower, where accidentally soap entered in his eyes, and she instead of helping him to wash his face was seen interviewing him and quizzing him if he had ever experienced such a situation before and how he was feeling at the moment.

Reality Show Judge- When he/she saw his/her children crying he/she was seen to be giving a standing ovation and commenting that these very difficult situations would help the child to win the show as people apparently like melodrama.

Teacher- she/he was found to be schooling the lizards, spiders and rats of the house.

Dentist- he was seen uprooting his own tooth.

Politician- he/she was seen delivering speeches in-front of his/her pets.

While the work culture in the west allows the workers to work from home easily, as most of their work is based on the internet, they could easily modify the work and do so from their homes. The work culture in India is very different, the office staff are unable to bring home the termite eaten files, either because they are not allowed owing to the privacy policy of the company they work for, or, because well, they just don't want to take these file homes.

In such a case these workers while working from home set up a small office space for themselves in their houses and call (audio call or video call- depending on their data packs) their colleagues. They then, start to work from home, which involves either gossiping or plotting and planning against their superior. They can also, be seen consistently pestering their wives for tea every half an hour.

No matter how you do it, its best you stay at home at these times and yes Work from Home.
