Likewise. I have zero interest in project management because there's
too much politicking and stuff to deal with.
I feel lucky. I love coding and want to do it till I die! And
since I am almost always hired as a contractor, working from home is
rarely an issue.
My problem is that you can't run a business based solely on
coding. I spend at least half of my time on project management,
client relation
The government does allow telecommuting to some extent though for their
employees but maybe it is less likely to happen for contract programmers. I
know the GAO did a report(GAO-05-1055R) that gave a rough overview of
teleworking methodologies for several agencies in the Federal government.

You bring up a key point. I refused to spend the rest of my life pushing code
around and moved into project management. I could not have done so from my
house. I love ColdFusion and think it's a great tool, but I did not want to
retire as a programmer. If you're happy developing code then by
Hah! Well, since it's 2 a.m. where you are (right?) I'll have to let that

Somewhere recently I saw another statistic relating to lost stuff: in
addition to all the laptops, PDAs, etc the FBI "misplaces" every year,
hundreds of their firearms go missing too. The situation is much improved
over a few years ago,
Given the amount of "lost personal info" that companies have, I'm
not quite convinced that it's easier to control centralized data.

There also is the issue of managing telecommuters. A lot of managers feel

I love telecommuting.

I'll just say that telecommuting workers could
have an affect on insurance related issues. And

support a telecommuter. And some people just

I spent several years in the SF Bay Area as an on-site developer. While
fun (to a point), the drive times were a pain. If I worked in SF, I
took the train in since there was no parking, and it was a three hour
commute each way versus just over an hour on the train.
Then I picked up a remote j
