These people are facing changes in their life. Read their situations below:
I dont really feel comfortable with this new idea of telecommuting. I wish I
could come to the office every day I have done for the past 5 years.
My name is Amanda. I am a hairdresser. I work in a beauty shop in the north of
the city. I am a single mother and have two beautiful sons. Mike is nine and
Steve is two. While I work, my mother takes care of my sons. She has always
supported me. But now my mom is really sick. The doctor recommended her
moving to a quieter place. So, she is moving in with my brother who lives in a
small town. If my mother moves, I will probably have to quit my job as I dont
have anybody to take care of my kids. I wouldnt leave them with a stranger,
especially the little one.

Greeting
Dear Gary,
Closing
Sincerely,
Dear Gary,
My name is Ricardo, I am a member of the SENA community. I read your story and I want
to give you some advice about your situation.
In my personal opinion I think adapting to change is the best thing you can do, go with the
flow and look at the bright side. I would suggest you that enjoy being at home, that you
rest and when you need the help of a companion, you call him and you ask him about your
doubt. Also you can try to making video calls sometimes with your peers to interact with
them
As a conclusion I believe you can save time to do your homework because you do not have
to leave home, stay positive in to deal with the changes. I think your boss is a good person
and wants the best for his employees, Relax, You will cross that bridge!
Sincerly,
Ricardo Portilla
