    I'm looking, Ed.-a And sure, working from home may be an option.
    Although it is helpful to have to leave the house to go to work.
    Keeps me from thinking I can take a break to do some laundry or
    put off actually working.

    WFH has some advantaged but not sure if I'd like it every day. My
    job required by presence for many functions. It also give you the >opportunity to interact with real people, have a coffee with them,
    have lunch together, solve problems together. That is one reason I
    worked past retirement age.

    I'm still in touch with a couple of the people, especially Sue, the
    office manager. We had lunch together every day, and morning coffee. >Wednesday was onion bagels, Thursday was McGriddle sandwiches,
    Friday was donuts. I did get to see her when I went north last
    month but she is having serious medical issues. We talk every
    Saturday morning.

    I've been working from home since 1993 or so. No commuting, no
    annoying colleagues (no nice ones either, of course), flexible working
    hours, all the breaks that I want and can afford. And I'm my own boss,
    and a very reasonable one at that.
    So how much do you make as a professional RFC bully/troll?
    And who is your employer?
