Anyone working from home?
So Im foutunate enough to be able to listen to the radio all day while at work, specifically Sirius satellite radio. I hear all day advertisements about working at home and making $15,000 a month etc,etc. So im just wondering if anyone here has ever tried working from home and were you successful at it. Please tell me your story.

My company went 100% virtual back in March. My office phone is VOIP, and I log into the servers to do my thing. Surf the net, listen to the radio, watch TV, its all good. Plus the benefit of not having to fill up the gas tank except once a month or so. No eating out for lunch. It saves a ton of money. I don't make 15k per month, and I miss the comraderie that you get in an office environment.
Forgot to add, that my wife doesnt work, so it can be fun....Secretary under the deck and all...

What kinda work do you do?
I myself wouldnt wanna work from home, but I know my wife would, and if I could find some way for her to work from home it would save me $560.00 a month in daycare. Thats the kicker.

The stay at home mom's i know that work usually do things like sell tuperware, avon and crap like that. I actually know one woman who is selling some sort of makeup, and skin care products that makes a few grand a month doing so. Once you have a client base it's not so bad they say. It can just be tough getting started.

I think it's a bit retarded that i DON'T work from home. There is very little reason to go to the office. I have an internet connection at my house, a phone at my house (we are about to install a VOIP system, so i could have an extension at my house if i wanted one), and i could setup an IPSEC tunnel to the office with my router.
why do i need to be at my desk? I'm on the road 75% of the time anyway. Maybe I'll mention it at the next meeting.
