To me, that sounds utterly horrifying. I'm unable to fly because of the TSA (I cannot tolerate being touched, and even the slightest risk of a pat-down is unacceptable). Any job where I'd be expected to fly cross-country is a job that I simply won't be able to do.
I want my next job to be a remote job because I'm probably going to be moving soon, and I'd like to completely decouple "where I work" from "where I live". Even if I could fly, the idea of working a remote job where I'd have to travel defeats the whole purpose of working remote.
