  telecommuting
  
     The practice of working at home and communicating with your
     fellow workers through the phone, typically with a computer
     and modem.  Telecommuting saves the employee getting to and
     from work and saves the employer from supplying support
     services such as heating and cleaning, but it can also deprive
     the worker of social contact and support.
