With more and more people each day being called to work from home when possible, many people are experiencing an entirely new kind of work-life situation. For some, being able to work without annoying co-workers is one of the best parts of working from home.
There are, presumably, less people stealing your food from the fridge, less people walking around distracting you, and (hopefully) less people coughing nearby.
For some lucky people, this has meant more time spent with pets. One Twitter user noticed this, and asked people to post pictures of their new “co-workers,” their beautiful pets. And, honestly, it’s hilarious.
for those of you working from home or are in quarantine, and who have pets, tell me what they have been doing most recently but refer to them as your co-worker

We got a new office chair and my co-worker stole it for herself KNOWING I have a bad back. When confronted she was insanely prickly about it 😤 pic.twitter.com/l0Fau5E0R1
