Four years ago, I packed up my life into a medium-sized suitcase and day pack with a laptop and began booking endless one-way tickets while working remotely. Before then, I used the freedom of my remote job to live bi-coastal, renting an apartment in San Diego and maintaining a home in Outer Banks, North Carolina.
Back then, remote jobs were scarse and highly-competitive. Once I was hired and working, I had to prove myself relentlessly to my skeptical managers. So if your job has recently transistioned from the office to home, I’m happy for you that you don’t have to deal with the judgement of being the only member on your team wearing pajamas to work. It’s wonderful to see this remote trend being more accepted as the technology was ready to support this movement well before social norms were.
