The TDY may not sound bad, if you don't mind getting Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday off. That means no commuting. I also don't think they are providing transportation to and from the airport to the condo, so you'd have to take your own car.

Of course $24/day per diem isn't going to buy you a lot of meal options, unless you like living on Ramen noodles.

I wonder if the condo has cable tv or internet? The company would probably deduct that from your pay if you want to use it.

I don't know if the TDY's will necessarily come from the Florida bases. They have been understaffed for years, so it could be a case of more West Coast people being forced East. I bet what they'll do is TDY people from the Florida bases to MYR, and then TDY people from the West Coast to cover the Florida bases. That makes perfect sense!
