April 20. Second attempt of the first day back at the company. The floors are a bit less empty now than in November; there are two people at each of six seats. Still everything is shut down, there is no food and no refrigerators, also the microwaves are not allowed to be used. At least phase 2 is supposed to start soon, when some of it will come back. More important than the working conditions, the better concentration and the joy of seeing some faces again, the whole vibe of this company – more important than all that is the pure symbol of going back somewhere. We back!
