I do once in a while. Our company is starting a program to have more people work from home. We have what are called “remote tokens” which allow us to login to any of the applications we access at work from home, which is nice. Hopefully I can convince my boss to let me do it more often. ---

You guys should by our phone system we sell and vpn solution. VPN solution allows you to connect seamlessly for any application and files with just a web browser from any PC and with a browser. Also, our phone systems support extension to cellular so when someone calls my desk, my cell phone rings too and its seamless to the caller. If I call someone in the office on their desk with my cell phone, the caller ID shows up as my desk phone so people have no idea if you are in the office or not. Its also great for Fridays at 4:55 when people like to talk your ear off. Hit the extend call button and your cell phone rings. Pick it up and hang up your desk phone and walk out. User doesn’t even know. 🙂 ---

Its a great tool when the boss calls you at 8:30 and im still in bed. > [@BluBalls](#): > > You should buy my database for SNMP analysis Lol. Our company monitors all our customers with dialout alarming. Since most major companies dont want to give open firewall access, this is the best solution. Trust me, I would much rather have SNMP alarming but its tough to push on major companies that have security audits and such. Or just paranoid IT people. ---
