It takes a different mind set though - discipline. I think it is so much easier to get distracted at home than at work... Yes, I agree that one needs some dedication also. I think that can come with your career and being professional. I think I can speak for many in that it doesn't matter who you work for or where because the real dedication is in the career. You do bring up a good point about distractions and every home is unique. I would say a must thing is to set up an office away from the general traffic and kids running around your computer. An interesting thing is how well some companies are set up to do it and don't realize it. Where I work I hardly ever see my boss, who is a director. The company gutted it's middle management years ago and the big guy hates managers! I didn't even realize there were companies like this, they really empower their professional employees. Not once have I had some manager telling me what to do, a far cry from my job at 3Com/MCD where they have far too many managers building their little empires. When USR/MCD (at the time) laid me off and 35 other engineering people in '96 I was amazed that no managers were let go but then they (at least at MCD) really don't understand that employees can be empowered and trusted to do their jobs. Sorry, I'm rambling <g> Derek
