I'm lost, what exactly is going on here? Is this a neighbour complaining about you working on a party wall or is it your customer complaining about you making noise?

working next door .Fitting new kitchen etc . Cant stand all this new "clinging" attitude so many hold since "covid " came along . Now they are all 'special " and need to work from home .But get annoyed when people disturb them . Same for tomorrow and Friday

It's not hard to get around. Just tell the zoom meeting that work is going on next door and also mute the mic until you are speaking. Common sense stuff really....

I was wondering what you meant by the 'banging' whilst working from home.

Its the Dramatic "I am online and the noise is a major issue with my ability to work" . Trouble is , Most never worked from home before Covid and now just use it as a Jolly.

Maybe some don't though. There are plenty of people who are more open to problems due to a medical condition, for instance.

Plenty of businesses small and large have also closed down their (expensive) office premises in favour of shifting some or all of their team to work from home.

Working from home does not mean people are taking the mick. There is often no need to travel to an office using diesel and causing congestion. 'Needy' 'madness'? Or someone over reacting much? I know what i think

Yep companies have found it more productive. I have always worked from home on and off my place of work according to my company is my home address. I am not needy nor a diva but some people struggle with modern ways of working life.

Middle child is a call handler, and has just moved back home saving (her, at least) £700 a month. She can do her job just as well from her bedroom as she can from the office.

We do work at a complex which has a three storey office building, prior to Covid the car park was crammed but now it is deserted just half a dozen people in the IT dept. The two upper floors and the associated canteen building are disused and emptied.
