I don’t know if he will work from home again, but there’s a funny piece on the trials and tribulations of telecommuting written by a fellow in the U.K. that we think you’ll enjoy.

My wife isn’t working today but worse than that, a pet hamster has effected a miraculous escape overnight. I had noticed that he was looking deeply upset after United’s shock defeat at Southend and chewing frantically at the bars but I never thought he would do anything like this.

Some cultural differences abound (United and Southend are footie. . .I mean, football. . . I mean soccer teams), but that just makes it better.
