Back in fall of 2020...I had this conversation with some guy who had been a NY City resident, and was given the situation that he could work from ‘home’. After a month, he posed the question...does home have to be anywhere in NYC, or could he go elsewhere.

His boss eventually came to an understanding...about every six weeks...he wanted a actual face-to-face meeting, the rest of the time...it didn’t matter.

So this guy went to some cousin who owned a RV dealership and picked-up an RV...parking it somewhere on the Outer Banks (North Carolina coast). He had connectivity, and access to some local airport. He intended to fly into NYC to please the boss for one morning, then return that evening to the RV park.

I posed the question...was he going to be permanently in this park? No.

So with your idea...month by month, I might be in another state, and gearing some regulation to fit...would be near impossible.

I’m not pro-home-office, but I suspect for 10-percent of people, that they might be creative in this environment.

There’s a book called The 4-Hour Work Week.
That’s one of the central ideas involved.
Using technology to do remote work and take work/vacation hybrids.
I could go to Ireland for a month.
Realistically, I can do 8 hours work in 3 hours.
I could spend the rest of my time seeing the sights and meeting the people.
