Let me ask a different way: Would one still expect to occasionally be "working" or "on the clock" when they're actually sitting at home waiting for instructions? And if so, can home be 2 or 3 hours away from the individual's base?

Just trying to figure out if the 18-day flex really means 18 definite days per month away from home. (I'm 34 and finally got somebody who likes me in the sack with her! Most nights anyway...)
