Work from home week

Waking up, I called to rebook my flight.  Luckily I connected right through, but the first flight would be Friday, and it would have to be a connecting flight.  Given that, I decided to just ask for a Sunday direct flight, and be done with it.

I would find out later this was a smart move.  Apparently all flights were grounded on Tuesday, and then on Wednesday the airport was on reduced service, such that Thursday would be their first day of full service.  Then on Saturday, there was a glitch in the system so there were massive delays for Air Canada. 

With the failed attempt to leave Toronto, and basically grounded for a week, I ended up having a working from home week.  Converted all of my meetings to remote meetings.  The phone meetings and conference call meetings we had with SVC for the past few years really made it feel like just another day.


However, the remote 1-1s are not as easy as it looks.  But somehow I managed it.
