    Working at home is a scam. Always has been. Not that I wouldn’t have loved t do it when I was working.

    Working at home is fine if the company is well-run enough to be able to determine what they need done and assign a value to it. If they are incompetent and lack direction, the best they can do is guess at how many people they need, pay them by the hour and then micromanage them.

    Yes, there are some jobs that need to be hourly. But, again, competent management should be able to distinguish which ones they are.

    It’s not a scam.


    Workers should be evaluated for what they produce and improve, not for where they work. I’ve worked out of my home for over a decade, have made a good living and earned increasingly more difficult and responsible projects and gotten paid well for it.


    My employers and clients are relieved of the expenses and overhead associated with another cubicle, phone, toilet paper, air conditioning, etc.

    People can work from home if managers do their job properly. It usually isn’t hard to tell if employees have measurable goals. Managers need to be able to reprimand people when they are slacking off. But that would require an uncomfortable conversation and the manager would need to gather their facts before talking. It is easier to say that no one can work from home when a few were not getting enough accomplished.

    If you really are professional about your work, you can work from anywhere. The time I’ve saved commuting I give to my employer. I give them at least 50 hours a week, and I’ve stayed with them a while simply because I can work at home.

    Working from home works just fine if you have well defined tasks and self-discipline.
