Definitely luck. I worked as a front-end developer on a team that was part-time remote (1-2 days wfh a week). Then our team got merged with another IT team that was full-time remote. I was at that job for about 6 years. After that I worked at a consultancy for a year and then a startup for another year with no remote work. Then I started my own consulting business, so I got to work full-time remote again. It's been about 2 years now and I'm loving every minute of it. I just bought a standing desk and a new french press :)
