Yes, I have been working a part-time telecommute job for the 2 years I have had a full-time permanent job. I support a company locally that has about 7-8 custom apps plus Help Desk 6.x supporting operations throughout the company. They never had need for a full-time Remedy Diva, but they got pretty nervous when I came up with a full-time gig. Now I just support them and do custom stuff on an as-needed basis, working weekends and/or evenings. May only be a few extra hours a month, so the load isn't too much and they can call me or email me pretty much anytime. Since it's also local, worse case (like server upgrades), I can just carve out time on the weekends to go into the office.
I will occasionally take on other 'part-time' limited type of gigs that I can do from home via remote VPN and telephone also. Heck, I've got a guy out there right now, probably trying to round up more telecommute opportunities for me - yihaw! I would say there are not a lot of opportunities, but there is no good reason there shouldn't be. If I could have the benefits of a full-time perm job but work remote from home and have a few really good clients to keep me from being bored, that would be the ideal situation. And, the advantage to me is that some of the stuff I figure out for one company ends up being useful for the other company and vice versa. The problem I see with most of the 'telecommute' opportunities is that there is still a lot of 'travel' involved. In other words, you can telecommute when you are not traveling...LOL. :-) Candace ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kaiser Norm E CIV USAF 96 CS/SCCE Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2007 11:11 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: OT: Remedy Developer Telecommuting Experiences All: I was curious if anyone has ever worked a Remedy job that was telecommute? How many such opportunities exist? Are they numerous or rare?
