Although if you work for a global company then maybe you will find you get a more global perspective by working from home than you ever could in any particular office.

My concern is that I will lose the sense of knowing "the pulse" of the company. Much of my work involves strategic planning and getting out ahead of the corporate plans. I suppose I can still participate in meetings but I wonder about the difference in not physically being in the office for those impromptu discussions that occur all the tme. In all this is a great opportunity. I also have a chronic disease that, while currently in remission, could flare up anytime making a 90 minute (one way) commute very difficult. So I plan to maximize this experience and test it out. Thanks Steve for sharing your experiences. Hopefully this can work me long term, as well.

I also work at home and sometimes, it feel terrible. Not getting much activity and exercise makes me lazy and drowsy sometimes and I feel very isolated, from my family and friends. ----------------- PlanetDrugsDirect.com, your resource of discount <a href="https://www.planetdrugsdirect.com/store/productdetails/default.aspx?id=1695" rel="nofollow">norvasc generic</a>.
