Evidence - Giving - Advice Ok
These people are facing changes in their life. Read their situations below:
I don’t 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 don’t have anybody to
take care of my kids. I wouldn’t leave them with a
stranger, especially the little one. Fuente: SENA

Sincerely, Closing
Dear Gary,
My name is John, 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, the fear of loneliness is something very recurrent in people who
live alone, but you must see the positive side of this new type of work, I would suggest
that the free time in home, use it for study and other activities, the time you save time in
commuting from home to work, you can take advantage of by visiting a relative. If you
want to get in touch with your colleagues, there are technological tools such as video calls
so that they can help you with whatever you need, also you can try with communication
platform microsoft teams.
If you go the extra mile, you can adapt to this new reality and who knows how to find new
friends online.
Pleasurably,
JOHN HERRERA
