Thanks to Citrix I can do most of my job from home.

Slow on the poll add.

Gaw Citrix Contivity client was one of the worst pieces of software I've ever had to work with.

Nope, can't work from home. I have to sit here and waste about 400 pieces of paper a day.

I love working from home...been doing it for over 7 years now. It takes lots of discipline, though. It's definitely not for everyone.

Working in sales, I can do mostly e-mail stuff and connect with my PC from home, just like I would be sitting at my desk. I call clients sometimes from my cell phone cause have free long distance and lots of minutes to use.

If it wasn't for todays rain storm, I would be working from home trying to dig up a sewer line that has tree roots in it.

Hate digging holes, but I do appreciate flushing the toilet.......

kinda hard to do as a teacher...

I'd need my district to donate a distance learning lab to the home...not likely!!

Although...after a full day of teaching...I usually have about 2-3 hours of additional work once I get home, does this count?
