    Did that a few years back and did all the work at home. If you provide good value they'll probably send you bits and pieces for a few years after that too. I was in line for another big package of work but the company went into liquidation.

      I did it for a year back in '95 (same organisation, pre takeover) and it worked really well.

      This place, like most big organisations, has a bug in their arses about working from home. On this gig, I deal with Bobs in Bobland and Accidenture Cockneys and sometimes people in the same town but different buildings. We never have face to face meetings (or very rarely). I could never get the mentality that says it's OK to work with a team 6000 miles away but it's totally unacceptable to work with a team 6400 miles away

      Still, at least they are seeing sense this time.
