FDD is too rigid: Some individuals might feel that FDD's emphasis on specific processes and documentation can be overly restrictive and hinder flexibility. They might argue that it doesn't easily accommodate changes or unexpected developments during a project

I’m a scheduler in a major hospital, see my position in other departments being advertised as remote available. How can I successfully negotiate WFH? I’d like to cut down on my 44-mile one way commute.

Background: I’ve been in my position for 1 yr. I have 20 yrs military experience, bachelors in Business. I took an entry level $15/hour job to get my foot in the door. I’m actively looking for a promotion. But 44 miles plus gas & business casual clothing on $15/hour is killing me.
