There's standard rules for car travel expenses, I don't see why not do the same for offices. People don't expense their Dodge Charger's gas bill, they expense standard reasonable fixed rate. Working from home isn't free, offloading all of the cost on employees seems like a use of employee resources without compensation. I'm not dying on that hill and it doesn't bother me at all to pay for it all myself, but it really strikes me as the same thing as use of personal car for business purpose == reimbursement. It's chomp change to me, but it's probably not for many people.
