This just seems so cool to me. I love my job, but I do envy people who get to get out and be with people for their work. That is one thing I really miss about the newspaper.
Freedom from the office -- the Bedouin way
I'm not quite a Bedouin, but I didn't have to take a sick day today OR go out in the rain with a toothache and sinus headache. Working from home is mad cool. I do some junior Bedouin stuff when I go to Syracuse, but not heavy-duty Bedouin stuff.
That is such a cool article!
As soon as I have my MacBook Pro, I'll be a Bedouin.

No thank you. I like going to work, doing my work, being at work, and then LEAVING work, not doing work and not being AT work.
Of course I'm much more compartmentalized than most people, and I'm much more comfortable with dividing myself between the "work me" and the "home me."
I wanna be a Bedouin, but I want other Bedouins with me.
I don't want to be an alone Bedouin, I enjoy meeting others though sometimes because I work too much in front of my PC I don't really know what is going on outside...
Hee! I'm a Bedouin now! I take Lappy outside when the kids are in the sprinkler.. I work when they are at dance class... there is even WiFi at McDonald's! I love it... I feel so much better being able to work wherever I am and not be tied to the desktop.
