    I'm going to take a wild guess, and say Garner.

    Well, Headed back out in the morning after 4 days off! So far it is great! I feel like a real member of the family again, not just someone who visits to do laundry! LOL! I got around 1700 miles my first 4 days, not too bad considering I got stuck twice trying to go up a hill south of buffalo! Fun! It was nice knowing I would be home after just 4 days. We will see how it goes from here but so far I like the schedule.

    If I'm not mistaken, isn't a 30hr week considered FTE these days (and why so many big companies PURPOSELY keep folks below that number so they don't have to pay/offer bennies)?

    Four days at 11-14 hrs makes for a 44-52hr week.

    Second 4 day work week I did 1900 miles. I have been home 2 1/2 days and am amazed at how much I am able to get done around the house and relax too! Still loving it!
