Which is one reason companies are willing to try centers based in India. As far as working from home, I appreciate when I call for assistance when people easily talk together about a problem, pulling down resources, and having synergy that may be more useful than, say programming.
>Regardless, congrats on getting something in these very trying times. Same here. I never spent time in Dubuque, but went to Drake (one year) and Iowa State (BS), and have good memories of Iowa. Congratulations!Sorry to hear about Dubuque placement. I used to visit there once a year in Jan-Feb for a weekend years ago skiing.On the positive side I heard that it is going to get train service to Chicago soon (the ride is long and boring).On the positive side it does have a decent place to get stereo equipment. Never can say anything positive about places to eat. It's IOWA so do not expect anything spicy. Skiing was mostly a yawn.
