@Opus 17 - I thought that that 'main place' for work has to be established to the point of a 'office deduction'. for example, doing all the administrative work in your example at the kitchen table wouldn't fly as the 'office' for the purposes of mileage deduction from your 'work location' to the first job site. However, if that "home office" meets all the tests of deducting that portion of your home, that is a totally different story as a 'home office' has been established; in that case mileage to the first jobsite from your home can be deducted.
your thoughts are appreciated.
