Love that these companies are seeing the writing on the wall, finally. Only 10 years behind schedule but it’s better than never I guess.

10 years ago me and my mom worked jobs from home. I did CenturyLink (phone company) and HSN and QVC. She did dish network, directv and Eddie Bauer. It was easier then to find wfh jobs than it is now. Then it was unusual, but no stigma. Now it's like you're an evil clown bent on molesting the village's sheep if you even suggest it. -_-

Now it's like you're an evil clown bent on molesting the village's sheep if you even suggest it.

So that's why no one reads my CVs? Dammit!

Yeah, the trick is to only molest them when no one is watching, and don't put it on your resume.

Every business owner keeps complaining about how no one wants to molest sheep anymore.
