Do's and Don'ts:

Power Close the Boss with the words he wants to hear: Beat the Deadline, Extra Days Work, Commitment.

Say This:

With my new home office complete, I can take the 3 hours a day I travel to the office, and put that lost time to good use by spending 2 days a week at home. That'll give me 6 extra hours a week to commit to the Johnson Project, and we can beat the deadline date that you were concerned about! That's almost an extra day I can work every week, and still have access to all the resources I need here. Could you use me for an extra day every week until the projects finished?
