I mean this in the most respectfulest possible way:  Oh, piffle.  There are 
tons of things that cannot be done remotely.

But not that many in the IT industry, which I suppose is what you meant.  I've 
been completely remote (barring an occasional one-week introduction at the 
start of some contract gigs) for years now.  But I wouldn't be able to do that 
if I were a hardware jock, upgrading equipment, laying cable, tracking down 
terminal connections etc.

For that matter I suppose (but I may be mistaken about this) that if I were 
just out of school and had too short a resume, maybe I'd have to show my face.  
Maybe employers would prefer to know you have a track record before they trust 
you to do much out of sight.

There is nothing that can’t be done remotely nowadays and companies that frown 
on or deny WAH are just living in the past or are poorly managed, or both.
