Comments on: Why Doesn't Everyone Work in a Results-Only Work Environment (ROWE)? http://www.corbettbarr.com/why-doesnt-everyone-work-in-a-results-only-work-environment-rowe Rewrite the Rules Tue, 07 Feb 2012 14:13:04 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Rick http://www.corbettbarr.com/why-doesnt-everyone-work-in-a-results-only-work-environment-rowe#comment-335 Rick Sun, 25 Apr 2010 12:57:05 +0000 http://www.freepursuits.com/?p=1576#comment-335 I'm a software developer and for as long as I can remember my best work happens at 10pm. The only problem with working like that is that going to bed at 2a and getting up at 6am is brutal plus, the idea that I need to sit my butt in a chair just because someone needs to see me there has always been off kilter in my world. I'm a typical night owl and work better at night so my jobs have always had a great person who can muddle through the day getting things done and then kick more butt at night but would I rather just get my work done when I want and do it with more efficiency? You bet! I love the ROWE movement and can't wait for more companies to step aboard! I love the idea of ROWE so much that I created a <a>job board for ROWE</a> "rowejobopenings dot com" so ROWE companies please sign up your jobs and lets get this thing started.
