Unfortunately the long road to smooth teleworking has been littered with these types of neanderthal obstructionists. Even in recent times there are morons like Marissa Mayer who use telework as a weapon to whip new blood into shape. Luckily companies like AT&T have been at teleworking a long time. They have dealt with all of the nay sayers and have proven through performance gain that there is no looking back. Telework is and will always be a necessity.
