• Pero, si pensáis que colgándonos podréis acabar con el movimiento obrero -el movimiento del que esperan la salvación los millones de oprimidos, los millones que se afanan y viven en la necesidad y la miseria, los esclavos asalariados-, si esa es vuestra opinión, ¡entonces colgadnos! Aquí pisaréis una chispa, pero allí, y allí, y detrás de vosotros y delante de vosotros, y por todas partes, arderán llamas. Es un fuego subterráneo. No se puede apagar.

• Working from home meant we could vary snack and coffee breaks, change our desks or view, goof off, drink on the job, even spend the day in pajamas, and often meet to gossip or share ideas. On the other hand, we bossed ourselves around, set impossible goals, and demanded longer hours than office jobs usually entail. It was the ultimate "flextime," in that it depended on how flexible we felt each day, given deadlines, distractions, and workaholic crescendos.
