  • I've tried and failed to get over the guilt of business travel. I travel a lot less than I used to and still going away for one night is a big deal. I'm sorry I have no tips to offer, just comraderie...

  • I see my children every day.
    Until next month when I start traveling for work!
    I will be gone 3nights a month.
    This is a FANTASTIC job, opportunity and it is what I want to do, with a great salary.
    So my husband is totally on board with my travel., And our family is here to help if need be.
    So I am not sure how I am going to handle it, But I think it will be fine.
    they are 3 adn 4.5.
    If anyone travels, I would love to hear from them.
    Is it better to call often?
    Is it better not to remind the kids that you are gone, except call once a day?
    Do you bring gifts home each trip?
    what luggage is best?
    Anyway, that is my .02
