I travel too much, too...and cannot afford to hire a full time person to keep the place open. So, my solution is to give everyone who pays to be at the space a key. We don't do the part timers and full timers thing 'cause I'd have to supervise. We have the 'have a desk' or 'don't have a desk' thing. The truth is, most people don't come in all week long, so I could count everyone in the space as part timers. T -- tara 'missrogue' hunt
