[quote=Anonymous]I work at a production based agency (not USPTO) with 4 days/week of telework. Production is monitored weekly so there's not getting away with slacking. However, upper management heavily implies that promotion is limited for teleworkers. Quite often the majority of production awards are given to teleworkers, yet every townhall meeting features some supervisor hemming and hawing about telework abuse and how it's important to be in the office etc etc. There seem to be a lot of losers that need to be in the office actively watching people. I may be an outlier, but I find telework vastly more productive due to not having a commute. Even if I do make a gourmet lunch or take a few coffee breaks, the actual time wasted is not as drastic as stopping in Bobbie Sue's cubicle at work to discuss her child's birthday party. Meetings and random socializing are huge productivity sucks in the office that no one really talks about.[/quote]
