I do, but good thought. I thought that would do it and it hasn't

I walk when I talk on my headset, so it jumbles up my spaces. I think I could do it part time from home, just not full time. The other two things are my office doesn't have a lock on the door ... so kids come in and co-mingles life. Second, it is a eat what you kill role ... so I am motivated to drive, drive, drive on results. If it were a customer service role and/or management role where I could delegate, it would potentially help.
