Hah, I have a fake job, which just started this week working from home providing remote software support.

Many jobs could at least be partially done from home. I'll be traveling 20% of the time.

BTW, I can get better fuel economy in stop and go PDX traffic in my Acura than the freeway MPG. Just drive the average speed of traffic, allowing a gap to form when it moves faster, and closing the gap when it's slower. People will move in and out of the gap, but it won't add more than 20 seconds to an hour long commute.

My Subie got 28 MPG, and probably would have done just about as well in stop and go traffic.
