Work At Home For Fun & Profit
It ain’t easy to be a telecommuter. Some people dream of severing the tether to their desk and long for the opportunity to work at home. They see adventure, freedom and personal control versus the commute, oppression and lack of control that sometimes goes with a show-up job.
You need a dedicated desk, file cans, desktop computer, printer, productivity software and back-up plans should computers or printers go haywire. I consider a dedicated work space as part of the hardware test because working at your dining room table may be fine to pay bills, but it isn’t cut out for putting in a full day at the office.

Well, it depends on how you manage your time.. But I agree to Kelly, sometimes work at home is not advisable to those who were easily tempted for leisurely things.
