As the international crisis of the corona virus pandemic takes over the world, we at Nerd Monkeys here in Lisbon, Portugal decided to start our quarantine 1 week ahead of the government imposed one. It seemed obvious that this was the correct course of action as many other companies were already taking the same steps.
So, since the 16th of March, everyone has been officially working from home.
For some team members this is a brand new experience, while for others it is something that has been part of their lives for some years now.
Diogo is obviously pretending to work. You can see in his glasses the cubes from Minecraft reflected.
Also, he is working on the laptop while holding a coffee mug. At least he could have disguised it a little bit better.

Francisco is a bit smarter. He decided to take a photo showing his computer screens with Unity and some artwork assets. You would be almost fooled to think he was actually working but then you notice it. Right there. In the left corner. A Nintendo Switch! ahAH! You can't fool us Mr. Santos!
Genebra is a programmer and because of that he thinks he can outsmart everyone else due
to his (supposedly) more logical thinking. Well Mr. Spock, you can't fool us!
If you look closely to his fingers of his left hand, you can perfectly see he is using WASD in conjunction
with the mouse on his right hand! HE IS PLAYING AN FPS GAME!
You see Mr Watson, he thought his Photoshop skills were just perfect enough
to hide the images on his screens, but he forgot to hide the most obvious piece of evidence... HIMSELF!
Filipe doesn't even hide it. Here he is "producing"... with a Nintendo Switch in his hands.
At least he is honest about it even if the photo was taken by surprise by his wife.
Wilson's face says it all.
Nobody believes you dude.
We know you were playing videogames last week.

Mafalda said she didn't want to take a photo.
So we asked her dog to sneak one for us.
Here she is playing in her iPad instead of working.
She has no idea her photo will be on this blog.
Thanks pooch! Woof!

Inês Pereira is our new intern!
We can definitely with all certainty say she is indeed working!
It would be rude to assume differently anyway, so here is a "short" introduction written by her.
"Hello, I'm Inês and I'm from Almada. I've always been pretty sure I wanted to do something related to animation since I was a kid. I attended high school at António Arroio, where I studied Audiovisual Communication with a focus on Multimedia. From there, I moved out and attended college in Portalegre, and now I have a degree in Design and Multimedia Animation. Yay! Now while Nerd Monkeys is my first experience in the area, I did work retail for a little while (super glad I'm not there anymore, considering what's going on). I only spent four days in the studio before this all went down and we had to start working from home, which does make me a little sad because the learning process and getting feedback does become a little tougher. But hopefully all of this gives me a little more time so that when things eventually return to normal, I'll be going full steam ahead~!"

Boring, just like every other intern.
Anyway, have a nice isolation week!
Take care, teddy bear.
