I work remotely because it gives me the highest odds of finding work to do. Some clients are local, but most of my clients are 1000+ miles away. I work remote because anyone that meets me quickly figures out I'm not an "ideal" employee, meaning my mindset is very much entrepreneurial. Remote work is a great way to use my skills, expose me to many techs and approaches, and focus on getting shit done. Remote work doesn't harm my career growth because I don't really see programming as a career. I give value for the money I'm paid and I move on to the next thing. When I'm done working for the day, I go eat, come back home, and do other work to make money. When I'm not programming, I do other things.
