The culture, function, and/or tradition at some companies may be incompatible with telecommuting. Telecommuting is not possible when job requirements demand daily face-to-face meetings (for example,
bank tellers and elementary school teachers). Those arguing against telecommuting say that electronic interaction does not permit "pressing of the flesh" and the transmittal of the nonverbal cues that are essential to personal interaction. **
