>While others have made it mandatory. One of which, I believe, you used to work for.
Not totally mandatory. But, preferable. It costs around $7,000 CDN per year to rent cubicle space for one employee in Toronto. And, that's not a very big cube! For the cost of a printer ($100), supplies (negligible), $60/month for high-speed INTERNET, a cell phone and a pager, somebody can work from home. Even paying mileage, when face-time is required, still makes this a bargain. But, due to my personal situation, and financial obligations to my kids, and ex, I was living in a small apartment over a Bubble Tea Shoppe, and there was no way cable was going to be strung to that location. So, I worked in an office. Now, I'm living in a (cheaper) place that does have cable access to the INTERNET, but the company I now work for has a policy against it. - -teD I’m an enthusiastic proselytiser of the universal panacea I believe in! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
