Why I only work remotely
The most damning condemnation of the open office is its exclusively for trendy paid corporate work.  Nobody ever told a student to work on a term paper at a singles bar.  No open source guidelines book ever claimed open source software can&#x27;t be written unless the author sits at a table in the middle of a wild day care center.  No one teaching themselves anything ever heard they&#x27;ll never learn in a quiet room, they need to try and learn at a Katy Perry concert.<p>Another topic often missed is megacorporations work remotely all the time.  In fact I&#x27;ve never met most of the people I work with because they live all over the country, and I work with hardware all over the country, in fact I&#x27;m working on a (private) cloud image later today and I&#x27;m not even sure what state its physically located in.  If the corporation says you&#x27;re going to work remotely because that outside contractor is 1000 miles away or that director lives 1000 miles the other way, its obviously inherently correct because the corporation said it.  But if a mere human being says something similar about his work environment, its obviously wrong because only corporations can be correct.  If my boss says she&#x27;s going to be 100 miles away thats great, if I say my boss is going to be 100 miles away thats inherently evil and must be suppressed.
