Fortune 500 Work From Home - Fortune Sourcing

Some Fortune 500 companies are home-sourcing their staff. A staggering amount of office space could be outsourced to opportunity seekers who are minutes away from their work... their PC.

Could it be that eventually the work your doing now at your present job (unless you presently make your living on the Warrior Forum) will be designated as "work from home" and home-sourced? Of course if your already making a living on the Warrior Forum your already comfortably what I call "Fortune Sourcing".

Years ago I worked in a call center and took calls for Dell and Gateway, heck it was ok work. Now I have a government job in IT and the talk is that "they" might oursource parts of our department to 3rd party vendors. Part of our IT staff presently has a pilot "work from home" project that seems to be working. IT people work 4 days at home and have to come to the office for their 5th day.

All the talk that we should bring back "call center" jobs to North America and keep the money here. Now if big Fortune 500 companies still want to limit costs then maybe they should be allowing staff to work from home. If its feasible this would lower some costs I would think. Bring jobs from India back to North America setting everyone up who want to work from home.

Home-sourcing or homeshoring seems to be the middle ground to outsourcing our Northern American jobs offshore. Heck call centers are allowing "work from home" projects to happen!

Years ago I recall reading an article that all of us will be making a living from the internet, where we can earn our living using the resources of the internet. I figure Internet Marketing "Fortune Sourcing" fits into this, consultation, inbound/outbound call centers, sales and customer service. Anything that doesn't require you to be in a storefront or in the office can be done this way.

I may not have everything down to a "T" as to what I'm saying above but in general terms the process of homeshoring, home-sourcing or Fortune Sourcing seems to be a very formidable and up and coming norm for us all.

Thanks

    My ENTIRE CAREER has been spent doing stuff I could AND SHOULD do from home! Estimates are that office space typically DOUBLES an employees cost. NOW, as to my contracts? I don't know HOW much the office space, etc... costs, but I CAN tell you how much the expenses are that they reimburse! They are approximately $41,600/year! IMAGINE, they could hire ANOTHER person, at the average US wages, AND have money left over, for that. ALSO, *I* would charge less, and get more done! GOD I could do SO much to save people money! HECK, they even created a workout room that FEW use!
