The COVID Funk & VMworld in 2020.

Episode 37: The COVID Funk & VMworld in 2020.

Show notes

This week, Nathan & Vince meet with Richard Kenyan and Tim Davis to discuss the COVID funk AKA mental fatigue that many are going through in the 2nd Half of 2020 and offer a break in the form of VMworld 2020 as well as the Social Community known as Orbital Jigsaw.

Mentioned in this episode:

  • Mental State changes in a Pandemic world.
  • Pandemic Life affects everyone differently. Acknowledging this, a key thing to keep in mind is that we are all experiencing it.
  • COVID Funk affects many Industries/Companies/Individuals in ways none of us could have predicted, except Richard apparently.
  • “The New Normal” Many mention it, What will it look like? We don’t know but understand that this is something we are all trying to figure out.
  • How will the elimination of promo costs under quarantine change the future of groups like VMUG?
  • If you haven't joined us in the new Orbital Jigsaw Discord yet, please use this link. This is for VMworld Watch Parties as well as Watch Parties for other IT Industry Events. The community is growing, so come on over and join us =)
