Automatic config of static routes for PPTP tunnel. How?

As an IT consultant who works full-time at a customer's site, I need to
establish a PPTP tunnel connection to my firm's home office in order to
access important network shares and e-mail, in order to best serve the
customer (I will not explain why; just accept this). Thus, there are
certain subnets on my firm's network I need to readily access once I
establish the tunnel. But I also need to access resources on my client's
network as well (who's address space is disparate from my firm's).


When I establish a PPTP connection from my laptop to my firm's home office,
I have to do a "route add" to add a few static routes to get to
the firm's LANs (I want the defauilt gateway I get from my customer site's
network to
remain my default gateway, not the one I get when I establish a PPTP tunnel
to the home office).

Is there a way to have a set of static routes automatically established when
I connect to my home office via PPTP, so I don't have to do it manually?
If so,
how?
