Plus, I commute, so I figure if I'm going to be away from the wife and kids I might as well be working. I'm just putting in the time, things are going to be much better in a couple months. Sorry, I didn't mean to sound like I was whining. It's just tough to hear the company asking for people to put in extra time when I'm sitting on my thumbs in San Luis. I'm done complaining. There are definitely worst places to be sitting on reserve.
Yep, 110 hours for me this month and that is like my avg with only 10 days off. Were so short in the Bro its not even funny, FO's and Capt's! Real happy to see there will be no relief for us in site with no new classes! Bring on even more red arrows for us in Skd Plus (The Quality of Life Killer!)
