From time to time I see an article that sings the praises of telecommuting.  I think that telecommuting is a great thing because it saves the employees a lot of time and money when they don’t have to drive to work.  The only problem I’ve run into is that some companies only allow telecommuting to a select few management employees, and refuse to allow non-management employees that opportunity.  I know quite a few people who feel that they could do their job just fine from home but their company won’t allow it.  It seems that the company doesn’t trust the non-management employees to do their work if a manager isn’t standing right over their desks breathing down their necks.
