i can vpn in and do whatever poo poo needs be done. i'll even record a skype video at work and play it back at home with fake webcam software so they think i'm at some stupid bullshit office where i don't really need to be. i'll just always act like i'm having connection problems

gently caress the rules. you can't catch farris jenie

One finds that this is the best of all possible worlds.
The secret to working from home is to schedule yourself a lot of meetings only to yourself so your Lync (or Skype or whatever) shows you "in meeting" and people will mostly leave you alone. At the very least, you have an excuse to not reply to their bullshit IMs in a timely manner.

Use this time to grind out levels in your favorite MMO.

I mean, it's basically the same scam the people employing him did. Make some code for us and we'll pay you 20% of the value of what your work makes for us. Oh okay sure boss I'll do that. Then the boss comes in and is like WHAT DID YOU DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh:

living the dream

any code that goes into our sc is vetted by 2 developers and a moderator (also a developer) and then automated builds reject the code

also every programmer has aspergers so even trivial mistakes like forgetting to attach a user story/work item/issue to a non-audited code review will get work rejected
