Thank you for personally attacking me when you have no clue what I do or who I am. I never said I travel that much (although I've met people who have). I'm not entirely sure what I did to get my message deleted (mods?), but it was not meant as an attack on you.
If you notice in my sidebar, I'm only a silver. I barely qualify for that. I've been reimbursed no more than a couple thousand in my life for travel. I'm not interested in traveling every week. But I have met people who do that (ATL-LAX commute, NYC-CLT commute, etc...).
My post was merely an interpretation that you were not used to being paid for travel and were taking it too seriously when everyone was telling you it was no big deal. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I remember my first time a few years ago.
