The machine is shutdown between work and home. My commute on a train is an hour and then I drive home from there. It appears that the multiple interfaces works. I used system-config-network and created a copy of the eth0 and nicknamed each eth0_work and eth0_home respectively and configured them as follows. At work I use dhcp. At home I use a static IP. I have to try this at home later, but will post my results. Thank you for the help so far!
