Like cate64, I was able to work quite easily and preferred to do so. Gave me continuity and was very positive for morale. My staff were very comfortable about me doing so from the outset, but as It became clear that nothing much had changed, we all more or less forgot about it (at work anyway). I'm an event manager, so if my energy/mobility had been affected, it simply would not have worked. I feel I was very lucky as I don't think I would have handled being at home (hardly the time to take a long trip!!) for an extended time very well. While many people find time away from work restorative and constructive, I do feel for those who can't work, feel their life has been totally turned upside down including their career, and of course for those who face a loss of income at a time they may really need it.
