One of the reasons we prefer not TCing from home (or near relatives) is because they assume just because we are home we are available. They tend to get a little upset when we decline because my husband is indeed working. I'm a little more flexible in this regard but he is a nose to the grindstone kind of guy.
Good for your husband. He's like one of the 10%, I mean 0.1% that isn't a TC'ing slacker. This of course is only true if you are telling me the truth. Perhaps I can't handle the truth
But what do we do about the potential wife who wants to grab a windfall off the corporation by having him TC in places where she can live the life of Riley

Those are nice places. How 'bout downtown Detroit?

Old style bosses who can't trust people like yourself are becoming the dinosaurs of the world. You're just like the 19th century factory owner who did not believe in empowering people.
Nope. If they are not productive at work or home, then they should go to a re-education camp, or be fired.
Just call me T-Rex!
TC'ing is a scam. Just remember, nobody knows you are goofing off before you do. So modulate yourselves accordingly and you will never get caught or exposed
The scam lives on!
