Slow Day at the Office...

Biding my time doing the 9-5 corporate thing behind my closed door for the day.  I had a frank conversation with my C-level boss a few months ago, in which I explained I'd need to start working remotely on a relatively full-time basis in order for me to continue rendering services. 

We have a great working relationship, and I've been with the company for more than a decade, so... since I have a fairly critical position and do it well, the concession on their part isn't a huge stretch -  particularly when accompanied by the unsolicited promise that I'd never ask for any meaningful raise, promotion, etc.  It's just what I need, and what I feel I've earned the right to "request" given my UFA status (to put things in JT terms).

Rather than leave the office cold-turkey, I've been easing into it by working remotely unannounced from time to time... slowly pushing the envelope ever further.  Today is my first day in the office after having worked from home last Thurs/Fri and yesterday.  I will make another in-office appearance tomorrow before departing for the remainder of the week (and heading to Las Vegas)...
