Hmm...from home, visit http://www.whatismyip.com

Go to work (or whatever the remote site is) and nmap that ip address

ssh open?

You could also pay a visit to http://www.dyndns.org, set up an account 
(it's free) and set a client on your freebsd box to update the ip address 
as it changes to make sure you're always able to get through.
