These people are facing changes in their life. Read their situations below:
I don’t really feel comfortable with this new idea of telecommuting. I wish I
could come to the office every day I have done for the past 5 years.
My name is Amanda. I am a hairdresser. I work in a beauty shop in the north of
the city. I am a single mother and have two beautiful sons. Mike is nine and
Steve is two. While I work, my mother takes care of my sons. She has always
supported me. But now my mom is really sick. The doctor recommended her
moving to a quieter place. So, she is moving in with my brother who lives in a
small town. If my mother moves, I will probably have to quit my job as I don’t
have anybody to take care of my kids. I wouldn’t leave them with a stranger,
especially the little one.

ANSWER
Dear Gary,
My name is Paulo Argote, I am a member of the SENA community. I want to give you some
advice about your situation.
Telecommuting is a flexible option to work and gives you the opportunity to be more
efficient if you use your time well.
If you can adapt to this work model, you could have more time for your benefit and
eventually to do additional works that other entries represent you.
Before starting to work, you should analyze which are possible issues with which you have
the most problems and find a solution for them, so that you can move them forward.
If you kill the tiger, do not be scared by the stripes, this means that if you have problems,
you would have to find a way to solve them, so that you do not stay within the cycle.
Sincerely,
Paulo Argote
