> Why is remote working a good thing?
There are many benefits to working remotely.
- It saves you time and money because you don't have to commute.
- It generally gives you a more flexible schedule, which lets you spend more time doing things you love (hobbies, family, etc).
It's definitely not for everyone - you have to be self-driven otherwise you might have productivity issues. It also means you have to seek out your own community because you won't have as much social interaction with your co-workers.
