Yahoo bans working from home

Personally, I agree.  WFH is a much abused concept peculiar to American IT companies.  I am all for flexibility - take early morning conf calls from home or leaving work at 4pm because you came early/have a night conf call to take/need to visit dentist etc...  Regardless, be in the office.

I know because I've seen this abuse in the work place.  It's just not right.
