Same desk, different job

In a play on the ‘same shit, different day’ phrase … the first day in my new role as Head of Learning Experience was very much ‘same desk, different job’.

In the current times with the increases in hybrid and remote working, changing jobs is a very different experience. Changing jobs remotely often means being sat in the same place one day, doing one thing and … then the same seat doing something different for someone else the next. Even with a break between roles, the view is the same. This time, however, you’re the newbie and looking to others for your cue. So, what has actually changed?

I’ll get to that later, but first, how did we used to leave a job?
