In this week’s Spy Sunday Survey, we asked you what you would do more of vs. less of than you were doing before the pandemic. We came away with a great number of insights from those of you who responded.
The data is below showing the survey results. Where we asked open-ended questions, word clouds share the most frequently observed words used in the answers.
However, there was something that came across when reading all the responses. People are very cautious while at the same time anxious to begin more direct association with friends and family in small numbers and safe environments. There were also numerous references to “not taking things for granted.”
Perhaps when we come out of this, there will be a greater appreciation for friends, family and the surroundings.
We hope you find the survey results of interest and invite you to participate in this coming Sunday’s Spy survey.
