My preferred line of argument to overcome such assumptions: My time is too valuable to waste navigating a car through traffic, and hiring a driver (permanently or per-trip) woulnd't make financial sense.
Yes, driving there may save you 10 minutes on a half-hour commute, but in the same time I'll get done 20 minutes of work/whatever.
- throwanem 10y agoMy commute takes an hour over 20 minutes by car, and my organization hasn't shown enough interest in making me able to work remotely to issue a device approved for secure VPN access, so I can't really make that argument go. But it works well for those who can. (I don't mind not having remote capability all that much, honestly. I've done the on-call 24/7 thing for enough years not to want to do it any more.)
