Dear all,
I have just managed to get my first 6 month contract with a very good rate. My only issue is that the job is 2 hours away from home and it doesn't make any sense commuting there every day. I first thought of staying in a hotel for the week and go back home at the weekend which is probably ok and what most of contractors do. However, i keep thinking about trying to negotiate working from home on Thursdays/Fridays so that i need to be there only from Monday to Wednesday ( and if i go there Monday morning and come back Wednesday evening, i will be only spending 2 nights in a hotel).
Were some of you in a similar situation and what was the clients reaction?
Thanks
