Build up vs Reality
Have you noticed that quite often the build up to something is far worse than the actual event itself? Last week I went into the office for the first time since May, in fact I was only in for a couple of hours to collect my belongings in May, so last Thursday was my first proper day of working in the office. It sounds ridiculous after previously working 4 full days in the office during 'normal' times but I have to admit that I felt quite apprehensive. It wasn't the fact that I didn't want to go back in, it was simply a fear of the unknown. Fear could be a slight exaggeration but nevertheless there were a number of things that were bothering me: What was the traffic like on the motorway these days? What time did I need to set off? What did I need to take with me? Where was my pass?!! Would I have any technical issues with my laptop? Would there be a docking station and 2 screens Where would I sit following the changes in the office? Where are all the feckin controls on...
