> But the inspector general found that for paralegals in the appeals office, working from home was a green light to abuse the privilege by doing laundry, washing dishes, reading books and a host of other personal activities. Am I the only one that thinks this is not "abusing the privilege" of working from home? If you don't have any work to do who cares WTF you're doing with all that free time? If the paralegals were so efficient at getting their work done that they had about 8 hours a day to fool around then clearly we have some awesome paralegals! Bonuses all around! I work from home and when I need to do laundry I do it. If I need to wash dishes I wash them. My wireless headset is apparently a superpower. I'll even admit that I've read books while on the clock! They were technical (digital) books related to my work, of course, but if I'm expected to know something how else am I going to learn it if the company isn't providing training? I've even been known to watch Youtube videos on my personal laptop while on the clock! Just the other day I watched a video about some of the new features in RHEL 7. Oh the abuse, it never ends!
