I agree with most of what has already been said. You can work at home and still be social. The nice thing about working at home depending on what you do you can pick your hours. In so doing you can go out in the middle of the day to hook up with friends or meet new ones depending on where you go.

I do work at home and I am still a social being. :) I worked overseas for 2 years from 2007 and then returned home to the Philippines in 2010, I still work for the same company but I am working from home. Much of what I do is done online so my company has allowed me to do work from home. I just work from my Macbook.

Some people don't want to work at home, because they miss the face-to-face interaction with other people that you have in an offline job. Some people work at home and like that lifestyle a lot. I don't think that a person who works at home is unsocial just because he or she works at home. You can work at home and still have a social life outside your home. An offline job is one way to be social and experience face-to-face interaction, but it is not the only way. Other ways could be a hobby where you meet other people or voluntary work. If you visit friends when you are not working online you also have a social life. There are lots of ways that you can have a social life if you work at home.

I work at home so does my hubby but we can't say that we're not social anymore since once a week our friends will come to our house for bonding moments like playing video games or just relaxing in the afternoon. Its not about someone staying at home to be unsocial but if that person will cut all his ties to society and close the door of his home then it could happen.

It depend on the type of the work... If the work related to doing job at cubical, staring at computer for hours, maybe it will turn us into un-social being, but if the work that we do need team work, sooner or later we will have to socialize with other people... funny thing is that doing work that require team work is also sometimes creating a grumpy individuals...
