[quote=yamashi1][quote=The-Shoveler]OK, but I find it hard to see how flex time and flex location in most occupations other than tech would even work.[/quote]
You will be surprised how many fields flex time and/ location works. For instance, I’ve even heard of flight controllers who direct traffic that are able to do their job in remote areas off Miramar road for airports in Burbank and Long Beach.
I’m in finance and work with companies on both coasts and can work with international clients if necessary.
In a previous job I worked with a developer who never left his home and he was able to manage a large portfolio of commercial real estate properties by having people email pictures of sites.
A lot of this has to do with the change of perceptions. Obviously face-to-face contact is better, but Skype/facetime/teleconference is acceptable and just as effective in many cases. This is the same as handwritten letters vs. emails.[/quote]Just saw this, yamashi. I thought you might be a financial advisor of some sort (have an individual client-oriented customer-service position).
