Ha, as opposed to what? Do people think workers in an office are doing 8+ straight hours of work?

how many hours a week are they on the clock?
supertux

most are salary + commission... so they are at the office for a standard day

One of the biggest advantages of having WFH employees is the ability to hire from a nationwide pool.

I’ll bet 4 hours at home is more productive than 8 hours at the office.

I probably work more hours at home when I'm remote because I work through what my commute times would have been.
