I work for a global company and my direct reports span many timezones. I start at 0600 when my EU reports are already at work and often go until 1800 or later when my AP report comes online.

Corporations would get so much more out of their employees if they focused on actual work completed rather than the numbers of hours occupying a chair.

That said, teleworkers must be appropriately managed and have self-discipline and integrity.

“That said, teleworkers must be appropriately managed and have self-discipline and integrity.”

Accountability, self-discipline, integrity.

This is a small fraction of our federal workforce.

But really, who cares? They can do nothing at home just as easily as they can do nothing in the office - as long as they stay out of the way of the productive class (literally - on the roads - as well as bureaucratically) I’m all for it.

I, generally work 4:00 am, until early afternoon. Right now I am on a project that requires quite a bit more, but my schedule is flexible. I love it, as long as I complete my work throughout the day, and am available (like this week) for unknown deadlines, I am able to pretty much work at my leisure.

I am able to schedule my time, my way. I usually like to work longer Mondays and Tuesdays, then by Friday I usually work 4-8, and have the rest of the day free.

PS. I am writing this on my home computer, not my work computer during a quick coffee break.
