The office you left is not going to be the office you return to
Your first day heading back to the office will probably feel different from the minute you wake up. Imagine the morning begins with a self-administered COVID-19 symptom and temperature check. An app will report the results to your boss. If all's well, a low-occupancy, company-provided shuttle will take you to work. Everyone on it will be wearing a mask.
Once at the office, a second health check. Attendants will strictly control access to doors, elevators and common areas to prevent close contact. The route around the office will be one-way only. Formerly jammed open desk plans will sit half-empty. You may be encased in a makeshift cubicle made of plexiglass sheets.
