(including if it is absolutely impossible for you to work from home).

If that is what you got from there speech then it was very misleading indeed.

from .gov..you may leave home to...go to work, or provide voluntary or charitable services, if you cannot reasonably do so from home

That is a world of difference from 'absolutely impossible.'

I also did not say that my trips were not essential, that is just as big a misunderstanding as you made above.
