<Telecommuting should always be a perk for people who have repeatedly and
consistently proven themselves capable of delivering top quality work.>
I really, really hope this attitude changes and very quickly too.
*********
I agree! I am in the process of trying to transition into a position which
will allow me to telecommute at least part time in the future. I know that
I am much more productive at home in a quiet environment without all the
interruptions of the office. Everyone has their own type of environment in
which they are most productive, just as everyone has a preferred style of
learning. I know that I am *much* more productive in a quiet environment
without flourescent lights and office chit-chat. Granted, I have ADD, but I
can't help but think that there are plenty of people out there who would
find themselves more productive if they could tailor their work environment
to their individual personality.
I either need to work from home, or have my own office. at this point, the
former is *much* more likely than the latter. =)
