## What is co-working?

While we are away from the office, some people find it helpful to simulate some aspects of the office environment, and work with their colleagues (virtually) nearby.

The Gathertown space is one way to do this. People can sit their avatars at a virtual desk, and see their colleagues avatars working nearby.

## What is involved

There's no set routine to REG co-working. The people who are in the space together will generally have a quick chat when a person joins, say hello, and discuss what they're working on. Then they will usually work in silence (muted) for a while (typically half an hour or so), then have another chat.

At 10:30am and 3pm people may join the Gather space for REG coffee, usually in the kitchen area. Co-working people may wish to join them there, or continue working.

If you want to work with one or more colleagues on a specific task that will involve more talking (e.g. pair programming) and may disturb other co-workers, there are various "offices" in the Gather space that can be used for this (they also have virtual whiteboards).

## Sign-up

Signing-up is not compulsory or binding - feel free to drop in or out any time, but if you want to let your colleagues know when you are planning on co-working, it might help others to plan their days or weeks to coincide (and vice versa).
