It really has only had minimal impact. I can design, calc, list, etc. just like at the office, and I can still access all of our servers and order material through a VPN connection. Barring the few distractions from the little ones throughout the day (not many more than a co-worker at the office) my work hasn't changed.

Put all my oil and gas projects on hold since they don't want anyone inside the refinery. That's about a year's worth of work.

As a training and safety coordinator it has been really busy. We have kept all of our jobsites running with strict guidelines here in San Diego. Our estimators have not slowed down and designers are slammed as usual before the summer. It's great to work with contractors who care about the safety of others and keeping businesses running.

Currently, my branch is busy and the obvious locations for work have been suspended (hospitals, nursing homes). Half the office is on a rotating 50% office/home schedule and I have a couple who are at home full time.

In my personal case it will have soon a huge impact. I am a loss prevention engineer, living in France, making surveys in nuclear power plants all over the world (Europe, US, Canada, South Africa, Eastern countries...).
