Employee Maintains Job by Commuting Across States Amid Spousal Relocation
Allie Hubers, a data analyst, faced a challenging decision when her husband received military orders to move from South Dakota to Oklahoma. Despite the move, Hubers was determined to keep her job, which she loved, in South Dakota. In 2019, remote work was not as prevalent, and job opportunities in her field were scarce in rural Oklahoma. Her employer proposed a unique arrangement allowing her to work remotely part-time in Oklahoma while returning to the South Dakota office for two weeks each month. This arrangement required frequent travel, often involving standby flights due to her husband's previous airline job. Despite the logistical and emotional challenges, Hubers managed to maintain her career and support her husband during his pilot training.
