How can I perform a Git Status that doesn't check remotes?

I am juggling different VPNs due to my company's rather fragmented set-up. Is there a way to run a Git Status command WITHOUT checking status against the remotes? I.e. just check local changes? Or an equivalent command? It's a PITA not to be able to just do a Git Status without switching VPNs just to do that.

git status should check your local branches (e.g. refs/master) vs your locally fetched cloned remote branches (e.g. refs/origin/master).

There should be no network traffic when simply issuing git status. Of course without a git fetch first, you won't really be comparing to the up-to-date state of the remote.
