I've been working from home for the past ten years or so, and haven't found it boring yet. But that's just me.
My team lead at one client told me they're all starting WFH this week. In his case he has something like an hour commute, so it's a blessing for him. I told him that it may very well work out to be permanent, even after the corona thingy is over. At least, in my experience when someone works from home, it started because of some need - pregnancy, recovering from surgery, maybe a broken leg or something - and once the recovery period was over the boss said "oh, just keep on with it, this is working fine". There are advantages to having people on-site, but they're often offset by the reduced expense of the extra cubicle - which is not just square footage and a few cubicle walls, but also a phone line, two or three data lines, power etc, and maintenance of same including evening cleanup. I've never managed an office but I gather it adds up to an amount that can be surprising to a worker bee like me to tends not to notice his surroundings. --- Bob Bridges, robhbrid...@gmail.com, cell 336 382-7313 /* Give a man fire and he's warm for a day; set him on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life. -found on the web */ -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of R.S.
