That's interesting, because all timesheets at MSFC for contractors are 100% electronic via the web.

I believe it is the same way at JSC.

But then again, it may depends on which contract you are working off of.

When is the last time you checked?

year and a half ago.. In my case I worked a service contract. I was not responsible for the finished project, but had to be available for design evaluation, test evaluation, S&MA evaluation. I interviewed for a design position about 8 months ago and they said that they were still not able to offer telecommuting jobs. I did not ask if was because of NASA-JSC regs or because of their own. As long as they are still willing to call me once or twice a year for a 1 to 3 year quickie contract then I will patiently wait until my kids are more independent before I go full time or take a telecommuting job.


Looks like I might have to call my old contract boss and see if there has been any changes.
