Returning Home After Work Pillows

"This is the best news."

"It's almost 5 o'clock! Where the hell is my vodka app?!"

'William, I've decided to go back to work so I can get a little rest during the day.'

"Oh, Mrs. Horris, he just said his first words..!"

"I'm learning to live with existence."

"How do we break it to them that work-from-home ends next week?"

"Hello? Guys? Okay, I've had a long day and I'm very tired, so no pranks this time. I'm serious... guys?!"

'She's determined to combine a family and a career!'

'How soon can I return to work? About fifteen minutes ago.'

"First day back at work. Don't forget to get some office stationery."

Did you miss me?

"I'm so happy to be back in the workforce I'll never complain out loud again about Mondays."

"I take it this is your first interview since the start of lockdown?"

"Now, Mrs. Stevens, go to work, relax, and leave the social engineering to us."

"I'm back. My family didn't want to spend more time with me."

"You're on 'Ask Sadie.' What's your problem?!" "I want to go back to work." "But my son is still so young. I'd have to send him to preschool or day care. And then most of my salary would go to pay for that. So what should I do?" "You should do what we did in my day: Have six more kids and then let them all fend for themselves!" "If your eldest isn't a strong leader, it may get a little 'Lord of the Flies'-ish, but that builds character!" "...in the survivors."

'Still having problems finding day care?'

"If someone hugs me my first day back, I'm going to just break into pieces."

The journey's end

'Mat leave's almost up...time for you to hunt.'

"Hold it, Lucy! Here I am!"

"We're not doing virtual meetings anymore, Stu."

'It's OK to take your work home with you. It's not OK to bring your home to work with you.'

"Good morning, Mother! We made you a desk salad."

"But first let's all congratulate Ted on his return to work."

"Is that you, or am I experiencing Artificial Reality?"

Working mother

"What do you think you're doing? You play with me every day for 15 months, and out of the blue, you're going to work?!"

"Holidays with the family... Boss, I'm so happy to be back again! May I do some unpaid extra hours please?"

"Your room is exactly how you left it before you went to college, except of course, for our boarder, Mr. Grunze."

"Yes, it's good to see you again too! But all I did was go to the mailbox!"

"Hey! What's with the 'home run trot'? You struck out!"
