Some telecommuters work in the nude SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 5 (UPI) -- Some 10 percent of worldwide telecommuters wear nothing at all while working at home, finds a survey by the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based SonicWALL.
About 39 percent of respondents of both sexes said they wear sweats while working from home, but 12 percent of males and 7 percent of females wear nothing at all, according to a survey of 941 remote and mobile workers worldwide conducted by Insight Express and SonicWALL, a provider of integrated network security and productivity solutions.
Forty-four percent of women surveyed said they showered on work-at-home days, as opposed to 30 percent of men.
Seventy-six percent of the employees surveyed believe that working remotely from home is an aid to productivity and 61 percent are convinced that their managers agree with them.
More than half of the survey's respondents accessed the corporate network from home on a daily basis, with 86 percent logging in remotely several times a week.

Obligatory question: anyone ever freep in the nude?
Ain't tellin!!!
I think you can get banned for that.
Reminds me of the story where someone had a video camera on their computer, and did not realize that it was sending continuous video of them over the internet. How embarrassing.
I sometimes FReep in my body cast.
100% nude? Nope. My eyesight ain't too good.
Kidding (not about the eyesight).
You bastard!
:D
I'm a sweats and socks guy. That, for me, is comfort. I suppose if it were comfortable for me I'd go w/o clothes, but it genuinely isn't. It would make me feel, well, naked...
This article really surprises me. I thought everybody felt uncomfortable w/o clothes.
BTW, JK, thus the smilee! ; )
"Too much information, running through my brain
"Too much information, driving me insane...."
Aha, so that's you! Next time better keep your mouth shut!
Who knows, the survey may have been taken in CA which means all bets are off. LOL
I would figure most people would work in sweats or shorts. I like gym shorts myself.
Heck, if you're gonna be working out of home, may as well be as comfortable as possible, eh.
Some statisticians have entirely too much time on their hands.
Sounds to me like SonicWALL was in dire need of doing a "survey" to justify their jobs and since all the good surveys had already been done by GLAAD and NAMBLA, they decided to do this one.
Freepers in the nude - ewwwww.
My first time actually. LOL
I am however temporarily blind now due to your pictorial generosity. As I always point out, everyone stand back, there's enough for everyone.
I'm so mean, aren't I? <:O
I think it's Ted Kennedy!
