[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get the benefits of telecommuting.  You're cut off from the information flow and you have no external motivation to work, not to mention it being pretty lonely. Unless you have a long commute, I don't get it.[/quote]

Saves the commute, less distractions from people in the office (although maybe more from stuff around the house if you don't have discipline) you can go to the kitchen and make a nice lunch instead of having to pack everything and you can dress casual.[/quote]

Um, I buy lunch every day, and one of the benefits of working outside the home is getting to dress up ;-) I see I'm not a candidate for telework.[/quote]

You could also telework one or two days a week, get the benefits others are describing and still get the information and social outlet from being at work.

I do think teleworking is better for people who have been in there jobs for awhile and know them well.  When you're just starting out it's much easier to walk down the hall and ask a question than to make a phone call or send an e-mail.[/quote]
