Two Sides to Every Coin

Or every issue.

Inc. com did a great article last year on the benefits, both to employers and employees, of working virtually/teleworking. Nothing in it was news to virtual assistants, but if you want to check it out, you can find it here.

The flip side, of course, is this nifty study about the Federal government's reluctance to be dragged, kicking and screaming, into the modern workplace.

If you are a virtual assistant, or have ever used one, you know the tremendous advantages, and decreased overhead, of having people who work for you from home. The government managers, apparently, simply do not get it. It's ~almost~ enough to make a person wonder if this sort of thinking is why they aren't in the private sector...
