One experience from teleworking which should appeal to mainframers: By and large 3270 is the least demanding data stream - so TSO / ISPF goes fast even on "broadband" as crummy as mine. (It's all the other junk that runs really slowly when the wet string dries out.)
Now I may be in a minority but I bet this counts for lots of people. Anyhow, having telecommuted for more than 10 years I'm looking forward to this article: "You are not alone" is a useful thing to hear. :-) Cheers, Martin Martin Packer, Mainframe Performance Consultant, zChampion Worldwide Banking Center of Excellence, IBM +44-7802-245-584 email: [email protected] Twitter / Facebook IDs: MartinPacker Blog: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/mydeveloperworks/blogs/MartinPacker From: Gabe Goldberg <[email protected]> To: [email protected], Date: 03/03/2012 21:43 Subject: Writing article on telework/telecommuting Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> I'm writing article for Destination z <http://destinationz.org/ on telework/telecommuting. I think this partitions in two dimensions -- technology vs. mindset and worker vs. employer. There's abundant information -- and blather -- about this subject. But Destination z is mainframe focused so I'm especially interested in relevant System z tips for all four quadrants: technology/mindset/worker/employer. Again, this is a "tips" article so won't include positive/negative anecdotes. But they're still welcome -- they can suggest tips, they're interesting, and I might write a longer piece on this sometime. As usual, extra credit for sending to me directly (in addition to list, if you're so inclined) so I needn't pluck from digests. Thanks, as always.. -- Gabriel Goldberg, Computers and Publishing, Inc.
