No offense pal, but if I were your boss I'd tell you to either fix your attitude or go find another job in Timmins.
Just because you can concentrate on one thing for longer without interruption at home doesn't make you more productive. For Executives to do their job effectively they need to know everything that is going in their organization, and that includes how their biggest expense (their staff) are spending their time - trust has nothing to do with it. If you're remote and your competitor is in-office, your competitor is going to win, because their executives know their business way better than you know yours, and will be able to make much higher leverage changes to improve efficiency, fix major problems, grow, etc.
The federal government doesn't have a competitor, but that's not an excuse to not operate efficiently.
