Ummmmm...what?
ummmm...
it's my english, sorry.
I'll try again.
Working from home means LESS money.-
- for the average joe* -
Thats because now, you get paid for the time you work IN the shop.
When you work from home, you'll start working all day, and you will be expected to answer the call, or reply to that mail any time of the day.
It doesn't starts like that, but that's where ends.
How much will you charge for that?
And how can you negotiate when out there good job opportunities are so few - and becoming fewer -
You might get even less money, cause you might be laid off and then ''offered'' the chanse to work from home, with less money than your current wage.
That's the economical part of the equation.
There are -and there will be more - consequences on social life and society from ''working from home'' model, sorry i don't have the time to write an essay about them.
I see people takin it lightly - the work from home trend -, and i'm a little bit worried about it.
*There are of-course people who working from home can make more money, but i rarely see that kind of people in prepress deparments.
