I do programming for a software company. Used to be in an office, and then got permission to telecommute permanently. I've seen everybody in the company exactly 1 time in the last 3+ years.

I have a friend that's an author, he hates it. I think that's why most of them become raging alcoholics. He complains that as soon as he wakes up, he's in his office.

my favorite part of working from home is that I can stand up from my computer and I'm home. zero commute time, except sometimes when it takes me like a few seconds to get out of my chair because I'm so tired/lazy/drunk

i like it. some people 'have a hard time staying focused', but this is coded language for having a lovely assignment (or job).

most medium to large businesses use pc because its easy to manage a network of them; at home you can use your Apple Macintosh :gary:

I work from home Fridays. My company refuses to give us a laptop with a number pad despite working with numbers all the time, so careful planning is required throughout the week, doing extra work each day and saving the exact amount needed as draft emails to send out the next day. If executed properly my Fridays consist solely of sending out emails I've saved as drafts.

you are on the right track. you just need to build some stations, and these can be used to process the coal. coal = code. stations = compilers. the coal doesn't come from actual mines. it's from people who work remotely from India for cheap

the train needs a little more pixelation. the more blocks, the better the code is.
