supercommute

I think the word they're looking for is 'travel'.

Once a month or something. Otherwise, he'll work from home obviously.

Niccol will still be expected to work from the Seattle office at least three days a week

Except when he's flying around the country/world to other locations.

conveniently he will have a work meeting in nearby upscale restaurants from his california home mondays, wednesdays and fridays.

Don't think for a second it will last long, or if it will be enforced at all.

He will be expected to be there 3 days a week, not obligated.
