-That statistician is an example of teleworker. -Integration helps me use daily time effectively. For example, doing a house chores or dish wash during a break time. -But is it always good thing to have our private and work life integrated?
Double-edge sword: Good to have ICT because you’re always-on. Bad to have ICT because you’re always on.
As of Spring 2012, the lawsuit wasn’t finalized.

According to CNBC, working on the computer at home (e.g. checking email, etc) accounts for 1 and half month of overtime work a year. http://abcnews.go.com/Business/overtime-pay-mails-lawsuits-continue/story?id=8366893#.UN4-KbTLDlJhttp://www.tbowleslaw.com/blog/?p=243What will the audience be able to do after In the second overtime lawsuit, Agui v. T-Mobile, USA, filed in July 2009 in federal court in the Eastern District of New York, plaintiffs seek to recover wages on behalf of themselves and other similarly situated retail sales associates for unpaid hours worked when reviewing and responding to T-Mobile emails and text messages at random hours of the day. Plaintiffs are T-Mobile sales representatives who receive an hourly wage plus monthly commissions. Plaintiffs allege they were required to review and respond to T-Mobile related emails and texts at all hours of the day, frequently outside their normal forty hour work week and were not compensated for the additional 10-15 hours per week spent on such calls and text messages. Plaintiffs also allege they were required to give their company business cards to customers, which listed their mobile phone numbers and email addresses. Although plaintiffs allegedly received telephone calls from customers throughout the week, including while off the company time clock, their managers supposedly instructed them to resolve customer problems over the phone, even when off the clock, for which they claim they were never compensated.
