Other convincing reasons are access to modern equipment and benefits like paid-for continued education, health benefits and a retirement plan.
Statistics will bear out that most of the working class will seek out the aforementioned work environment. Looking forward to their retirement plan, they are content to drive or take public transportation to work each week and collect their pay checks. These people whose talents are staggering in scope have. through their skilled work, made America the most powerful country on earth.
It’s not the fault of the American worker that we find ourselves in our present recession. They can’t be blamed for the destruction of our economy. They just have to live through it.
As to those people who do choose to work from home, there are various reasons for their choice. With moms its mostly because they want to raise their own children and not leave them to day care rearing. But its also because they have a spark or drive within them that needs to be expressed in a home-office environment. They possess a unique entrepreneurial spirit that must be manifested within their own work-from-home business.
Men who work from home are basically the same in that their desire to succeed in their own home-based businesses takes precedence over the allure of corporate security.
