We lose half an hour travel per day. About the same as it would take me to travel to a workshop based job locally, so I don't mind that. I wouldn't be happy if that were changed in the company's favour though, and if I only got paid when I got to site I would find another job. Most of my customers are an hour and a quarter's drive, and a couple are two and a half! There seems to be a gradual erosion of working conditions throughout the industry, whilst you are expected to do more and more.
