Me 3 times in the past 6 business days. 3 different "opportunities".

I noticed you live out near PA and used to commute to Secaucus . . . we have a 3 day in office position in NYC.

Nope. Not gonna do it. Great job, flex time, 2.5 days in office, 25 miles from my house, one toll into PA.

My point? The tech sector is going to be tough to hire in unless you have flexibility for your employees. Global Trade Compliance Managers deal with global issues. You don't HAVE to be in the office to do that job. My last position and current position are in Tech Manufacturing.

I go in two and a half days instead of two because I'm a c-c-c-control freak.

I chose a career path that in a hyper scale data world - I don't have to be physically present. Teachers, Medical, Production - yeah - you gotta be there. But data driven and phone call work - nope.
