When the COVID-19 pandemic shutdowns drove businesses into remote work mode, there were two common reactions among office workers: Those ingrained with the 9-to-5 in-office mentality cried, “Oh, no! It's the end of my job as I know it.” Meanwhile, those who had worked remotely either full-time or occasionally for a couple decades said, “So, what's the big deal?”
Actually, there was a third group. They are called the IT group. They not only were tasked with the challenge of building out and supporting a work-from-home infrastructure, but they had to do it while working from home themselves.
