Working at Home

There are plusses and minuses to telecommuting.

Plusses include working on my own schedule, working in my sloppiest t-shirt and shorts, and not having to waste gas commuting. And a big plus: no office politics.

Minuses include loneliness, lack of inspiration and sometimes overworking.

I'm not sure I like it all the time.

But, when I think of my last two office jobs - working for the crazy Nikki at the UW and working in the registrar's office at UNCG, telecommuting is a big step up.
