I'd suggest running yum update answering no, then getting the packages 
that it lists at work, and copying them into the appriopriate directories 
on your home machine (/var/cache/yum/[repo]/package if I'm not mistaken).
You could probably write a quick sed script to parse the yum output and 
change it into urls to get at work.  Once you've copied the packages you 
just rerun yum update, this time with a 'y' (and hope there were no extra 
updates in the mean-time).  This if by no means perfect, but it'll get 
'most' of the data from your work machines (you'll still be pulling the 
index and headers files at home).

If you're more desperate: than get a big removable USB/whatever (the 
current update set for centos 4.3 i386 or x86_64 is approximately 640MB).
Stick it in to your work computer, rsync the centos update directory onto 
it [I'm including the script I use for syncing centos, but it syncs _a 
lot_ more than just the updates - you'd probably want to remove the 
entire dag-specific part, and add more filters to limit yourself to 
updates only (or even just change the base path)].  Once that's done (the 
first time will take looong), unmount it, take it home, configure yum at 
home to use the mountpoint from your USB as the update repo 
(/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo or something like that) and run yum 
update - voila, the repo's local.

Cheers,
MaZe.
