Fiona Thatcher, Aaron Brooks and Barton Donaldson are three talented, aspiring young Australian lawyers working in London. As with most lawyers, since about March of this year, that work has been based at home. We hear a lot of commentary on how people are adapting their work around the pandemic but we wanted to hear from this younger cohort directly.
Fiona, Aaron and Barton talk of how life was and how it now is, the things they hope the pandemic has changed for good, and of a future of work they see that is not constrained by a physical office.
This was an eye-opening discussion for me which makes me ponder whether the rush to return to the office post pandemic is going to be as strong as many Landlords would like.
