I am slightly anti, becuase I understand the reality of telecomuting. The mindsets and self disipline of some do not work with working mostly unsupervised. And some jobs cannot be done by telecommuting.
Telecommuting is a part of the answer to reducing our energy independence, but just one small part.
Rubbish. Subsidies don't lower the cost, they just hide it.
Of course, if it's not possible, it won't be done.
That's no reason to be 'slighlty anti' in the cases where it makes total sense.
Duhla, what shit college did you go to that you get soo offended on an education basis.
Are you going to really make me laugh and say the least educated will commute. LOFL
I am not slightly anti in those cases AHZ. But even in those cases it will not work for every person. Even if they have a college degree
I am one of the least educated on here and I don't commute....
"Heck I don't even own an iPod or PDA "
So? you are an archaic senile old fuddy duddy.... we are impressed when your generation is able to SPELL technology. We never dreamed you old codgers would be able to actually USE the technology.
ROTFLMAO,
I have worked in the bleeding edge of the data communications field for most of my life. Just not into gadgets. I am up to well over 5,000 classroom hours of continuing technical education. I know more about many technical subjects that an engineer will out of college.
As a matter of fact one of my duties is to guide programmers from India to be sure their product is really what we need.
Now if I was into consumer electronics as a profession I would bone up on iPods and such....
It's funny that you're "not degreed" as Top likes to point out, but you telecommute and his company won't let him.
I mean, it's pee-your-pants funny when you think about it.
It would be enough to make anyone else STFU and STFD, but not Top. No, he'll go on making a complete jackass out of himself for our entertainment.
US... I know... I was just rippin on ya for being....... OLD.
Duhla, I didn't say I never telecommute I said I wouldn't need to.
I worked from computer at home before they even called it telecommuting.
NP, I am just glad to still be around to be ripped on
And with AHZ, yep I don't play with tech, it is my job. I use tech when it makes sense for me. My company I consult with provided me a cell phone about 1 year ago so I do have a cell phone / leash now ....
They just love to call me at 3 am for a bridge call....
Or when I am fishing at the pond with my 7 yr old grandson...
Tech can suck....
