I work from home full-time now. My company's HQ is in another state.
I never have worked for a company that wants you in the office, and telecommuting was alright. It was one or the other, for me.

Maybe they ask you to come to the office once per week (or something like that).
I'd rather be phishing!

I worked for a company like that once.
What it means is you work in their office. When you think you are on vacation, you get to telecommute instead. When you think you are at home for the night and winding down for the day, it means they will call you at home for the daily emergency (sometimes they forget they already had the emergency and call you 3 or four times during the night).

I'm on the Farcebook homepage.
Just one click away from creating an account.
I'm about to give up my beliefs for a bit of social engagement.
So... Should I?

NO!!!!!!!!!!
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

Yup.
Personally I think it's retarded, but only because it's a poor excuse for social interaction and filled with narcissistic people that post crap for attention. That being said, you should give it a whirl so you can see what the fuss is about and decide for yourself. Just don't be one of those peeps that thinks it's more important than real life though.

I've been putting this off for years, even when my best friend said I should definitely take FB...
Guess you're right

Just do it. The worst thing that could happen is you get addicted to it and become a FB junkie - selling your body and soul to crack whores and pimps on the street for just a little bit more FB time.
See, nothing to worry about.

That doesn't sound so bad! At least it's a little social interaction that isn't Facebook

So how's the stalking life treating you?

No. Get yourself a hobby and join a club. You will get to know lots of people with the big bonus that they have some common interest.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

I hope this isn't so you can hook up or anything?!
Just remember, you really have no control of any data/images once you commit.

There's nothing wrong with a guy wanting some nasty. I'm more worried about the guy that doesn't.

I would be, too.

Well, all my friends are on Facebook.
And so are yours (taking a wild guess here).
And so are our friends' friends.
So I guess hooking up on FB is as good as any other place and actually better since it's just from behind my desk which I prefer over some bar or club

I don't know why I thought of this[^] song when reading your post.

I don't have any friends so they're definitely not on Facebook ... although I am. I'm sure there was a reason I joined but damned if I can remember what it was!

To get some of those friends you've heard so much about?
