Discussion:
Staying sane and (somewhat) productive amidst home schooling and other obligations

In this week's Kitchen Table Mingle blog (https://www.forkliftaction.com/news/newsdisplay.aspx?nwid=23215) our editor Allan gives a personal account of working from home, which he has been doing for the past 20 years. For many of us we don't just have work to worry about during our time in isolation, we are also juggling home-schooling kids or other family obligations. We'd love to hear about your experiences or any tips for staying productive and sane in the midst of chaos!

Great point, thank you! Yes we are social beings and there are so many benefits from talking face to face, it helps us strengthen our soft skills (creative thinking, empathy, teamwork) which are so important in business. Do you have any tips for trying to maintaining strong social relationships during isolation either in a work or personal context? Thanks again for sharing!

We should not only know the benefit of working at home but also need to address that people have social needs and it's more healthy to talk face to face occasionally. So we would have a balance mental health.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
