Great point!
When I got my first Yorkie, Bella

Boo...I was fortunate enough to work a hop, jump & a skip away from home (well, about 3 minutes

) and could take my lunch breaks at home with her everyday.
Aaah, the memories of counting the hours till I could escape the workplace to fly home to be smothered in puppy kisses!
Having time to spend with a new puppy while you are off work would be ideal however, that depends on when that time begins and when you actually find your new baby.
Don't rush...please take your time and remember, there are many dogs available through a variety of rescue groups that need a furever person & home, too!
