    Bring it up with your FM. That is a problem and something needs to be done about it. That's what I did and it wasn't a problem after that.

    After 2 weeks out I was only home for 35 hours. I let my FM know and 2 weeks later I was given 4 days at home when I only asked for 2. Since then I've gotten 2 days for ever 2 weeks out. I usually get home some time Friday and don't leave until Monday Morning.

    Exactly,you need to talk to your fm and if need be go over his/her head. Thats not policy though Ive heard of fm's trying to get their drivers to accept it. Sorry no dice! If policy is 1 day for each week out then thats what you are suppose to get unless you agree to less. Dont be afraid to push back politely when you're getting the dirty end of the stick.
