    What is this "home time" you speak of?

    Alien term to me, no doubt! LOL

    In all seriousness, take off less than a week per year. But, that it my choice & my life.

    Hometime should be a serious consideration for most folks, though.

    Generally 3 days after 4-5 weeks out.

    Three FULL days off, mind you.
    If I deliver any time on Tuesday I take Wednesday thru Friday off, and come back at around 1000 Saturday.
    Never earlier than 1000 because I have to get all my stuff back in the truck, and I will not wake up too early on my last morning at home.
