What about database administration? I

I couldn't imagine a job that sounds more painfully boring.

DBA work is very suitable for remoting.

One reason I like working with databases is because it's not a constantly evolving tech. I think Sybase DBA's are killing it, even more so than Oracle.

There are companies who have made it their bread and butter, to do managed services in this area. All you need to do is set up monitoring software on the database server and sit on your butt until you get notified that there's a problem.

Sounds like a perfect job to me.

Side note: Remote work + IT = INDIAN

I think being a native English speaker in IT is just shi* these days. If you want to be in IT, you should learn Spanish, Italian, Polish,French or Russian.. There's way more jobs available to you and you won't get assassinated by some $1 a day Indian with dreams of coming to the Anglosphere and making it big.
