virtual insanity
i found this article about the virtual office, i think its really true!
and i like the idea and truth it has to BS working, one benefit of virtual offices is that once you get your work done, you don't need to sit there till five to clock out then stay an hour later to LOOK like you are being really productive. virtual bosses just want the work done, the goals accomplished, and you can go ahead and take that long lunch, just dont expect to sleep before due dates. but it doesnt really matter does it? no one sees the bag under your eyes or the pajama casual anyway!
read it and weep. or read it and sleep. either way...

The gist of the article says, "the benefits are flexibility, efficiency, and little overhead. The drawback is that time management is difficult, and not everyone adapts.
It might seem that in the land of virtual companies, in a virtual economy, there is virtually no work getting done. But Dennis Yang and Sarmiento both exemplify the work ethic that typifies virtual offices.
'In a small company where people know each other and are dedicated to a cause or a calling, you can count on everyone to be productive,' says Yeh. But even a technology cheerleader such as Yeh doesn't foresee a workplace devoid of stupid meetings and wasteful schedules.
'The virtual office can cut down on the BS,' he says, 'but BS is part of human nature.'"
