Completed unwanted task list from Onsite team

After clarification from the onsite team, my entire focus should be on the task list shared and not to work on any other suggestions or comments from my manager or any other person for that matter. I was a bit relieved in this direction from the onsite team as all the task list shared by the onsite team would not take more than an hour and any inputs or suggestions from my manager will be irrelevant due to the clear directions from the onsite team. By the end of the day, I have completed all the tasks assigned by the onsite team and in the daily status calls, I presented my work to them. Surprisingly, there were no new suggestions or inputs from the onsite team, and they were acknowledging my effort on the task list. However, I did not know that all these efforts will be in vain and I had to start from scratch post clarification from the Client.

Job loss during Coronavirus

To recap shortly, I took a long vacation before Covid-19 pandemic striking across country and got mail communication from my office that my job is secured, and the situation would not impact my salary structure. Even though the mail communication was consoling about the job, there was slight fear in me about the status of my job, as there was not even a single mail communication happening in the team and it was bothering me more than anything else. I wanted to check with my colleague about the work status in our team and called him up to validate the same. We spoke for about 15 mins and the discussions were mainly focused on our future in the company and our job security. To my surprise, he was mentioning that the entire team had work during my vacation and the Covid-19 pandemic situation gripping over the world. In addition, our team manager had mentioned that our team can connect from home until further notice and don’t need to worry about Covid-19 situation.
