    Well they must have sensed my aggravation at the miles. I've ran 3 600 mile days in a row and tomorrow will be 600+ as well.

    Good for you TF, my daycare kind of dropped the hint that they're going to kick our kids out. So who knows what the hell I'm going to do.

    I do 340-560 city miles around the twin cities almost every day. Just been rather slow this past two weeks. Oversea freight must be slow rite now.

    Apparently I have the meanest 2 year old on the planet, well that's not fair he's not 2 yet. Since May he's scratched 3 kids and bitten 4 times. Although he hasn't bitten since April and didn't start scratching until June. So he's the devil and they're not going to tolerate it. So it's options time, I'm mostly crazy so I'm going to try to sell my current boss (the one I gave my two weeks notice to last Friday) on letting me take all the call for the department every weeknight and weekend. I can also run all the reports I was doing before and create and complete the scorecard that we've discussed, as long as I can do it from home and watch my kids. As an added bonus I'll come back to work for them full time when my 2 year old grows out of this phase or ends up in prison. Not to mention according to the Mayans the world ends this December anyways.

    is having the child at work an option?

    my wife worked full time with an infant next to her computer in a carseat, as a tech writer in california.

    but an antsy mobile walker would be somewhat different.

    He'll know his ABC's and FMCSR's. But I can't see it working with my current environment.

    it takes a cooperative employer.

    sometimes all you need is an unused conference room or something like that. but there's liability issues and safety issues, and all that other stuff.

    i understand the day care problem, though. that's serious business, because there ain't no options lots of times.
