Working remotely is a very common solution nowadays. From the point of view of employees, it is undoubtedly time-saving and more comfortable. “Commuting” to work takes them seconds, not hours spent in traffic jams.

No makeup, no ironing clothes, nor running for the bus, just staying in their own home. What’s not to like about that?
