Now that nearly the entire world is on lock down, some of you may be amongst the millions that are having to work from home. A lot of us are new to this work at home gig and some are clearly getting the hang of it while others… not so much.
To give you a laugh during this uncertain time here are some of the best working from home tweets we’ve come across.
1. Animal Co-Workers
for those of you working from home or are in quarantine, and who have pets, tell me what they have been doing most recently but refer to them as your co-worker

my co-worker won’t stop screaming at me, I know she’s probably still hungry, but I just gave her food

2. Couples who now work from home together
Pro-tip for couples suddenly working from home together: Get yourselves an imaginary coworker to blame things on. In our apartment, Cheryl keeps leaving her dirty water cups all over the place and we really don't know what to do about her.

3. The conference call potato

4. Accidental zoom bomb
My partner was on a call working from home and I tried to crawl behind her so as not to disturb BUT I DIDNT REALISE YOU COULD SEE THE FLOOR BEHIND HER AND ALL OF HER CO-WORKERS WATCHED ME DRAG MYSELF ALONG THE CARPET

5. Conference call etiquette
During social distancing, it’s important to remember good conference call etiquette:

- awkward silence
- can you hear me
- [weird small talk because someone is 10 min late]
- BEEP BOOP
- strange crunch
- heavy breath
- oops sorry you go ahead
- sorry no, you
- BOOP beep
- bye?

Day 4 WFH: Tacos all three meals
