May I ask you to change the leading text to something more useful for remote workers?
REMOTE doesn't cover but the most basic possibility and 90 matches on this page make it quite cumbersome to find what suits you.
What about deprecating it and requiring posters to use instead:
REMOTE_WORLD - for telecommuting from anywhere in the world
REMOTE_US - for telecommuting from anywhere in the USA
REMOTE_US_TX - for telecommuting from anywhere in Texas, USA
REMOTE_MINUS_6 - for telecommuting from anywhere in the UTC-6 timezone, standard time
REMOTE_PLUS_1 - for telecommuting from anywhere in the UTC+1 timezone, standard time
Example: In the past, I telecommuted to Boston (US-MA) from Barcelona (ES). That job would have been advertised as "REMOTE_MINUS_5, REMOTE_WORLD". In fact I worked 3pm-11pm in ES (i.e. 9am-5pm in US-MA), which was certainly unusual but quite doable nonetheless.
