So, do any poggers have experience working remotely for extended periods? I'm considering an offer that would involve something like that and am trying to evaluate pros/cons.

Had fun up on Max Patch a few nights ago.



Today is my second full day in Hot Springs. Tripped last night at our camp along the French Broad river with some people in my group. Third night sleeping under the stars and really getting to know a few hiking partners pretty well, including a GIRL!

I've worked from home but I wouldn't presume that my experience relates in any way to those of normal humans.

Take a hike tbob I checked your trail journal this morning for updates, good to see you.

probably that's a bit out of my price range. I was looking a bit at this:

or this

but i want to poke a few about a bit first, to see whether i think the trade off of screen for weight is right on that sort of machine

i found working from home was ok for about a month, then i would go off the rails and have to commute into a library, for about a month, then i would go back to working at home.

I'm really lazy updating it but I do have a hiking related facebook if youd like to follow that which is updated more often. Just PM me. I'm leaning towards just writing about the travels using my notes and all after the fact. Even relaxing is a full time job on the AT but I love it.
05-05-2015 , 02:36 PM
wait a minute, you mean i might be insane only because i don't see people at work all the time? ........... no no no. sadly no. i used to see people at work all the time and i was even worse back then.

ISIS is claiming responsible for the thing in Texas yesterday, such attention whores. I doubt ISIS has any ****ing clue where Texas is tbh. Plus it was a miserable failure, the only people who died were the gunmen. That's some poor man's terrorism right there.
