Some of the nonsense will go away. You won’t have formations and things of that nature, but it’s all dependent on how you value your time. A few months before I got out, I had a four day trip (Tuesday through Friday), commutes to drill (Saturday and Sunday), and then had a four day trip (Monday through Thursday). I flew diced wing in the Army Reserves, so my airplane knowledge was easy to keep up with. As a former -60 guy, I couldn’t imagine trying to keep up with my -60 knowledge AND company stuff. It’s just a lot. Sure, you have Mik leave to drop when you want to, but better have a good credit month or you drop below guarantee. Personally, I like my time off, and my world has been unimaginably uncomplicated only having to work one job. And God help you if you commute to both. That’s a different kind of hell.
