WTF?

WfH...

Most people already have broadband at home...

Also no reason to run lots of computers at home, i just use a single laptop and connect remotely to servers at work...

You still have your car, but you won't need to buy as much fuel for it... I assume you still use your car for purposes other than commuting.

The costs of heating (or in the summer, cooling) and the negligible costs of powering the laptop are pretty minimal compared to the financial and time costs of commuting to work...

It takes me an average of 2 hours/day to commute, assuming theres no delays... It costs about £10 in train fares, and in exchange for that i get to sit on an uncomfortable train, followed by an office which is noisy, uncomfortable, full of distractions and forced to compromise on environmental conditions...

Here i am at 6pm commenting on this story, had i been commuting i would be sat on a train in a tunnel listening to music and staring out the window.
