I have no kids and generally no responsibilities, so I don't mind giving up my Sunday to travel given how infrequent it is, but wondering how others handle business travel days?
When I sacrificed a weekend day to do this, my employer compensated me. I had no kids but a husband and gardens and I DID mind rather a lot.
