He works from home on occasion but as a manager of people, he is the one who A. has to set the example and expectations for his team and B. he has to make sure his team is getting things done. Normally he works from home if he's been up half the night on an SRT (Service Restoration Team---as management when there's a bad outage he has to coordinate the restoration effort to get service restored) or he's just exhausted and wants to get stuff done for work without so many people coming to him and bugging him while he's at work. Plus, I doubt anytime soon his company is going to let folks with any kind of regularity work from home...big time corporate America is pretty behind the times in that regard because they want to guarantee they are getting their money's worth out of you.

And yes 2 tanks of gas a week at 60 bucks a pop adds up.
