I've been full-time remote (work from home, with a 3-year stint of work from RV) since 1995. It's always worked well for me, and I've been plenty productive enough to keep employers happy. Raised 4 kids in that time, too, including homeschooling. When it works, it works!

As an author with half a dozen or so titles in this archive, I'm happy to see this. It's not like I was making any money from books published a decade or more ago.

I've done everything from lead developer to VPE to Engineering manager to architect. Working for a little medical company now, but our work is not on the critical path to pandemic fighting so we probably won't last.

If you're intrigued by this, William Leary's book "Project COLDFEET: Secret Mission to a Soviet Ice Station" is definitely worth a read.
