Anywho, things at work are going great and I will recently be joining a new department. With this new position comes the chance that I will be working from home. My current position allows me to pick up 4+ of OT a week working from home and I love it, now imagine a full work week...
Anyone else here have this kind of setup? Does the fad wear off or does saving $40 a week in gas and working in sweatpants really not make one miss the outside world?
I have been busting my *** designing and implementing a new home office (its come out pretty awesome) and now I know why people get so crazy about home offices/PC setups.
Peace, love and soul food.

I've been working from home for a couple of years now and I can tell you it's the cat's ***. I've been eating healthier than ever and without the commute to wear me down I have the energy to exercise. I still see my friends but I don't particularly like my co-workers so @#%^ them.
Welcome to the club!
This is is what I am hoping to achieve. I do have to admit when I am home all day I do tend to snack more (especially when stressed) I am sure its something I can overcome though. The hours are probably not going to be 8-5, more like 11-7 or 12-8. Which means yard work/errands/exercise in the AM, work a few hours, bring home little bits from school and pray to Bob she doesn't come into the office screaming about **** or something when I am on the phone.
I see myself accomplishing more work while home; less stress and an hour+ commute, 8:30 at night, kid in bed, wife at gym and I'm bored... get some extra work done (or **********, whatever). I will be doing system administration for a rather large utility company and most work involves emails and logging into PBXs.
