[QUOTE="Jackburton, post: 1223955, member: 34538"] I can relate in this situation, but as dispatches climbed we have adjusted our lives around the later days. The contract only has language to prevent you from being over 9.5 two of five days. Which two are totally dependant on how much work you have and how long it takes you according to working at a steady pace. I once tried to control those over dispatched days for kids sports, workout times, and general family time. I now don't worry about it and just take as much work as I can, substituting the time I don't spend during the week and do it on weekends. I've also come to realize I don't watch TV anymore unless it's on DVR that my wife and I can watch when I get home after I eat dinner. I have no idea who plays who in what sport as I don't watch TV on the weekends. I guess you could say I have substituted my TV time for more work. My stress level has significantly decreased and my health (due to working out after work as everyone's asleep) has increased. [/QUOTE]
