Pretty Liberal. Too early to tell though since I moved over to the Company Driver side.
First home time I took a week when my Mom died. They offered me Two weeks but I chose to just take one.
Second home time was 6 days at Thanksgiving.
Third home time was 6 days at Christmas.
I've as yet to have a common home time. But I know how valued I am by my dispatcher and he knows that I wouldn't abuse it.

Thank you. There on some on this forum that like to ridicule Company Drivers. In a previous thread, I was told that 70k per year was Chicken$#!T money. In my world, 70k for working 43-45 weeks per year with full benefits, 401k, vacation pay, breakdown pay, great lanes, great hometime, and ABSOLUTELY no financial risk on my part, is not a bad living. I am almost 62 years old. WHY would I risk my fairly substantial savings on becoming an O/O.....L/O, particularly in these crazy financial times.
