Catherine Cooper Hybrid Boomer

A Hybrid Boomer is an individual born between 1946 and 1964 who is still in the workforce but working from home or a remote location. We are only required to report into a company facility when it is necessary to collaborate in person or for in-person company meetings. We transitioned into this type of work mode during the COVID 19 Pandemic. In defining a new normal and the future of work our companies have decided to allow us to make this a permanent way to work.

On designated office days, employees are expected to be physically present in the office for hybrid work arrangements.  When to report into the office is predetermined and coordinated among team members to ensure effective collaboration and communication.  The problem for many of us returning to the office is that we no longer want the distractions of being around others.  Never mind that we are already frustrated from the morning commute and the loss of work life balance achieved.  Who is going to do the laundry or drive mom to the doctor! Now our shoes hurt and the clothes that…
