Very true. Even though you can typically proffer out of it you are always left with it hanging over your head until 5/6pm. This makes it uncommutable for some people. This makes for either a really late night and early morning or a really long day. I remember commuting for a RAP 2 getting there at 7 am and the subsequently being assigned an airport standby at three pm. I was at the airport from 5am until 11 pm. It was fun. Now I'm based at home on reserve. My wife asked me last week if I got fired and didn't want to tell her.
