I shudder at the prospect of running into my manager and co-workers on a night out, shopping for groceries, or spending time with family. THe point is to get away from work and relax. I can see it now. "Hey, Frank. Good to see you. I see you're buying steaks. Are you grilling? By the way, we're going to be ramping up on the audit work next week. Just wanted to give you an FYI. Anyway, enjoy your cookout! See you on Monday!"

I believe there will be thousands of people lining up with applications in hand for that kind of problem.

Those applications would be for Amazon jobs, not for that type of problem though. The days of the mill village have long passed.

I'd take that housing close to work and spend weekends at a country pad, but that's me. I'd love to bike to work.

Didn't realize there was that much space over there. I definitely think Hogan should consider a secondary location close to D.C. Port Covington might not be the end all be all location some think it is.

Biking to work and living near your workmates are two different things.

Would you kindly stop. Let people dream, why do you have such an issue with that?
