Yeah, its hard to resist when its right there in front of you. I prefer the 'once a week' discipline; just dont buy it from the supermarket, rather than have it in the home, but at work?
Cant you work from home on donut friday?

I refer all and sundry to this[^] post from Maunder to me a few hours short of a week ago. Then he followed it up with another[^] post to me yesterday.
Today I answer his challenge here[^].
Please pay attention to the 2nd word of the 2nd sentence of the 2nd paragraph. No tricks, no special characters and boom the filter code can suck my balls.

What are you guys talking about? It's filtered as far as I can see - unless a fix was made after this post.

Belgium, man! Belgium!
In my experience, that word is so offensive that even they who would protect us refuse to type it into a system that is meant to protect us from it.

Yes, but it was written by his mistress, May O'Naise.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

Currently my job offers me a 1-2 days a week working from home, and I really enjoy that setup. Actually I would love to move to a 100% work from home setup. I'm rather early in my career, 2 years of experience and graduated with my bachelor's 6 months ago. I get the impression working from home is usually a privilege reserved for employees who have been with the company for many years (unless their local office closes and they're forced into it, I should be so lucky).
Does anyone work from home now, and how would they rate the opportunities out there for someone just starting out? I'm a Systems Engineer and I do a mix of Dev Ops, Linux & Windows Administration, VMware Administration and Cloud Administration. Is there any specific niche anyone could recommend where WorkFromHome jobs are plentiful, and rank isn't so heavily discriminated?
Thanks,

I tried it in a previous job and I wasn't strict enough for it too work. I would goof off more in the day and do my work at night.
When the job was more to support the database in working hours I can say that job it didn't last too long.

My current position also has 1-2 days a week WFH but it can be extended if needed like this week when my kids are out of school for "fall break".
I will be glad to get back to the office next week. WFH is nice but even this misanthrope has found he needs face to face coworker contact.
You do have to be disciplined in your work ethic though, it's very tempting and easy to get distracted but when you get focused you can find yourself working longer than you might if you were in the office.

- WFH makes you invisible to hallway meetings and impromptu technical decisions (more correctly, potential decisions).
- IMHO, you learn less from your colleagues when not physically in their presence.
- Unless you're an experienced and "indispensable" member of a team, you risk becoming redundant or losing opportunities that would otherwise may be available to you when present at your physical work location.
