Working Remotely

 Cal got an email from Plante Moran that told him that his start date there had stayed the same, January 4th, but that he would actually be working remotely.  He was happy to know that he still had a job, but was a little surprised about the change in how he worked.  He had been planning on moving to Chicago in December, but now wondered if he should just stay here.  That would save him quite a bit of money and keep him out of the Windy City in the heart of the winter months.  He said he would email them this weekend to get an idea of whether or not he could just work from home.  He thought that even if he had to go in once a week or so he could just commute for that day or get an Airbnb for the night. 

Doug and I talked about the change in Cal's circumstance several times this evening.  We thought that it would work well for him to stay here at least until Plante Moran starts working in the office again.  We might have to change a few things in the rooms that he lives in as we get closer to Thanksgiving.  Meg will be home for two and a half months and will need access to the basement as well.  That could change, however, as she has talked about finishing out the semester in Bloomington living at Brett's apartment.  Then she could continue to work at Bell Trace and study for finals. Either way we will figure it all out when the time comes.  Ultimately, we were just happy to hear that Cal still had his position as an auditor.
