I was contacted the other day about a job opportunity where I would telecommute. The company is a small, but well respected company where most of the employees work this way. I'm hoping to get some perspective from those who are in this situation on what it is like not to go into an office every day? There would be some field work (about 15%) when I would probably be interacting face-to-face with co-workers. I can see a number of advantages--dramatically reduced vehicle expenses, lunch expenses, and before-and-after school daycare expenses (I'm pretty sure we could make that one work once my daughter is in all-day school.) I can also see some negatives like not going to lunch with the guys and a reduced sense of what's happening around the office.
