I mean, what are you going to do in a lockdown?
We did "meet" a couple of times for remote beer last year with the rest of the team.
It's not like going out, but it was better than nothing to spend some off-work time with the colleagues.

- ghaff 5y agoWhatever your opinion of restrictions in a given location, I'm pretty sure the right answer isn't to put pressure on people in a job context to ignore restrictions/recommendations/what makes them feel personally comfortable in their own situation to get together with coworkers in person.
- jMyles 5y agoSure, I didn't mean to suggest it's people's duty to capitalism to gather with coworkers if they don't want to. But in general, if the question is, "how do we accommodate <unsuccessful interdictive intervention whose collateral damage is visited with horrific severity on the most vulnerable in society>", I think that answer is: you don't. You organize and overcome it and speak truth to power.
