While working at IMS, I can do a majority of the work remotely from where ever there’s internet access. So most of the time I don’t need to go into the office unless it’s a new assignment and my boss wants to sit down and explain the objectives. While working at home my account password notified me, that my account was going to expire unless I…[Read more]
