That takes time-and persistence. None of these barriers is insurmountable. We have surmounted them many times. But they do not fall overnight. Typically, it can take two years to get a telecommuting program started in a large organization, and another year or three to go from the demonstration phase to the first stages of roll-out to the rest of the company.
Smaller companies can move faster.
You get a job to produce some useful output for an employer, with rewards to you commensurate with the results. As technology improves, desktop video conferencing for example, and as employers become better accustomed to teleworking situations, that bias will relax. But right now the chances are that you'll have to find an employer within reasonable commuting distance to get started. Unfortunately, we don't keep a list of them. The word about telework is getting around.
