Thanks in advance for anyone who takes the time to respond.
I have a dilemma, should I move close to family and drive 165 miles to work everyday? Im transferring from Dallas to Houston, my family lives near Austin.
Pros:
•I work 2-4 hours a day
•I make enough for the drive to be worth it* about $400 in fuel cost every month/ and im expecting to get a raise
• I can put my daughter in a school I’m familiar with that I went to
• my employer doesn’t care where I live, as long as I’m at work when I need to be.
•off weekends
•free land from my father to live on!
Cons:
•it’s a 2 and 1/2 hour drive
•mileage on my car (but I don’t care it’s a commuter)
• being away from family for 9 hours or more a day (which is about the same as shift work but just driving)
Thanks!
