Sabbatical pay? what a dream. Here's the problem with employment with ebay. Its only in select cities. No work at home, telecommuting positions. Who would have thought?

I can always sell stuff on ebay, but where's the security? No insurance, 401K, etc. How come telecommuting jobs do not offer these great benefits?
