The key to successful telecommuting is good communication, especially
between telecommuters, managers and coworkers. Since your manager is no
longer going to be able to just drop by your desk and you won't be
running into coworkers in the hallway, communication on telecommuting
days needs to be electronic. Some ways of keeping in touch on
telecommuting days are:
person-to-person
phone calls
email
audio-conference
calls
faxes
voicemail
pager
