[QUOTE="bigbrownhen, post: 726351, member: 20495"] Browngirl14, welcome to the BC. Thanks for being so supportive and sympathetic to your husband in dealing with this job, it can take its toll on a marrige. You seem to be the type of spouse to listen to our frustrations, that does help. As for the Sat route. To my understanding you can't get compensation for gas mileage unless you are forced to drive to the route, i.e. a coverage driver. If he won the bid for this route, then there will be no compensation. You guys might look into getting a small car that gets great gas mileage, it could pay for itself. As for the late hours, is there anyway you could move closer to the route, even half way? It might be worth it. If this route is that bad, he probably won't get bumped off of it. There are alot of sat drivers who live close to the route if not on it, and like not dealing with the center in person daily. Keep a positive outlook, this is not permanent. This site has alot of good info, is a great sounding board, not to mention addicting and fun. :happy2: Feel free to come here and sound off. Its cheaper than therapy or a divorce. [/QUOTE]
