At year 3 pay rates(and I even assumed the year 3 pay rates that would be in effect 3 years from now at DOS+3) it would require about 2559 hours of pay to make $450k. That’s 213.25 hours a month. 17 work days is worth 82.28 hours of pay if the trip starts at 0000Z on day 1 and ends at 2359Z on day 17. More realistic for a 17 day trip is about 75-77 hours of pay. Months with training will most likely be 64 hours for 17 days. Open time pays 4.84 hours a day CRT plus 2 hours the first day, 4 hours the second, and 6 hours day 3 and on in a month.

Typical HR BS. It’s not just abnormal it’s impossible.
