Looking at 8-3 going from Gonzales to North Baton Rouge and an extra 9k a year. Did the gas figures for what I pay now and I will go up 800 more a year.

Not familiar with that commute but if it's stop and go the whole way I would need at least 50K, I assumed you were talking straight interstate. I would shoot myself in the head after the first week of that.

Not even $5 an hour gross.

I'd pass. Depends on what your ultimate upside where you're at is.

Now, if they pay mileage or car expenses, I might consider it.

I would basically count those extra hours as "work hours", so I would need at least what my hourly would breakdown X the number of days a year of be traveling.

9k wouldn't cut it IMO.
