I\u00b4m fine today and I don\u00b4t believe I\u00b4m at any particular risk, but some things stay with you. I have always been careful with respiratory infections, and when something new is spreading I prefer to be early rather than late.<\/p>\n<p>So I will look at working from home where it\u00b4s possible, at least for the meetings that don\u00b4t need me in the room. Luckily most of what I do can be done from anywhere with a good connection, and the customers I work with are used to online meetings by now.<\/p>\n<p>It also made me think about something else.
