Since 2007, I&#x27;ve worked at home most of the time... only commuting across the country to go into the office about 8 days&#x2F;year. I&#x27;ve gone through a lot of personal changes through that time as it relates to working remotely. The company and my colleagues have too.<p>At first, we felt disconnected. But now, I think we actually talk more. The hallway chat has shifted to skype calls, usually talking about random things before or after discussions about something else.<p>In fact, I think the hallway chat is even more honest and productive now because we don&#x27;t have to worry about who else is listening.<p>Almost everybody is more productive, happier and less stressed.
