8th yr 73n FO, live in base & answer the phone every time it rings. End up with 14 days off/mo average. Including profit sharing will nearly hit $250K this year....(counting what we'll get 2/14/15 as it was earned this year). Living in base is KEY, not caring what your days off are and proper/strategic utilization of payback days (bidding rsv in the summer & rolling thunder). Still had PLENTY of time on the boat, Elk hunting and snow skiing. Worked every holiday except this coming Thursday (I forgot to bid, seriously).
