in my mind.  Maybe after I've been out of the loop for a few more years, I might start to forget what it was like.  But I highly doubt it, because all I have to do is go to any store, hospital, bank, restaurant, heck even a traffic light and just watch...watch the angry, impatient, "me me me me me me" people out there.

Working at home...I kinda feel like I'm my own boss.  Sure there are e-mails and TAT issues, but I actually have control over most of that stuff.  I get out of my job what I put into it.  Yeah, some days are harder than others, but that's just life.

Fresh in my mind are the 8+ hour days of standing on my feet ALL DAY LONG at a register on Mother's Day in a sweltering hot greenhouse putting foil and bows on potted plants, or answering phones at an answering service that were so busy that at the end of 4 hours my voice would be hoarse, or being unable to pee because there was a line of ornery patient's waiting with scowls on their face because THEY needed their outpatient tests booked RIGHT NOW because THEY were on their lunch break and their time is money!  (and then when you finally do get the chance to pee, some nasty-a$$ crotch-cricket-ridden patient decided to leave a floater or pee on the seat!)  And all of this was at least 10 years ago now and still painfully vivid. 

So yeah, go ahead and work in the real trenches and then make a fair comparison of working at home versus working somewhere else.  Whackin' on keys and having to repeatedly playback some ESL now and again ain't nuthin' compared to putting up with a bunch of crap that you can only imagine if you haven't experienced it first hand.
