So what about Texas? As a whole, work from home employees are saving over $702 MILLION. Work from home employees in Wyoming are the biggest savers in the country. The national average of savings an employee that works from home gets is roughly $281 per month. I saved myself some good money working from home.Ī study has been done highlighting how much money people are saving working from home, and the numbers are pretty impressive. You wanna know what I loved the most about it? I didn't have to get in the car and use gas. That was my first experience working from home. They were gracious enough to let me stay in Austin and work remotely from there while my kids finished their school year and baseball seasons. I hold no ill will towards them, I get it.Īs I began my search for a new job, I landed in Amarillo. I mean, every company had to go through them because everyone was losing so much money. I'll admit, it got a little lonely at times but to me, it was worth it.įast forward about eight months later to when I was laid off due to budget cuts. Plus, it was kinda cool having this big ol building to myself essentially. I felt a need to be in the office, live and on the air as the pandemic unfolded around us.

I was in Austin at the time, and that entire building (aside from myself and one other person) did as they were instructed and stayed in their PJ's while they got their work done from home.

Now to be honest, when the pandemic hit and everyone was told to stay home, I didn't.
