17、ability to be productive outside of a traditional office. Even so, most white-collar work still happens in an office. One reason is that, according to findings of a new survey of office workers conducted by Wakefield Research for the IT company Citrix, most bosses arc doubtful about remote working.
18、Half of the workers say their boss doesnt accept it, and only 35 percent say its tolerated.Skeptical bosses will likely have their doubts reinforced (加深) by the same survey, which shows that 43 percent of workers say theyve watched TV or a movie while “working” remotely, while 35 percent have done h
