telecommuting request
Posted: Wed Oct 02, 2019 10:55 pm
I got an offer for a job that I really want. It would be great for my career and is my top choice. However, it is far away and would require uprooting my entire family, including children who are in school, to move. This situation sucks, it's a lose-lose either way.
The thing is, this job requires zero court appearances and is mostly just sitting behind a computer screen. I know I can do this work remotely, and maybe fly in from time to time, when necessary. I would even be willing to split my time 50/50 and travel back and forth, maybe a month here a month there.
I wish for them to let me telecommute so badly that I would be willing to take a cut in pay for that option!
I'm flexible about it and just want them to try to work something out with me. But I don't know what would be the most effective and convincing way to approach this with them
