Thankfully, I don't seem to mind being a manager. But, as for programming at
home, I'm simply MUCH too lazy to bother! I work at my workplace and THAT'S IT!
:-)

But, I'm getting paid fine (although not as much as when I was Lead Programmer
for CM). I hate politics as well, and my wife tells me that I tell the truth too
much. So, perhaps I don't make a GOOD manager, but why would I want to be one of
those? :-D

Many thanks,

jm
