I work to get paid. My days off and my paycheck are what makes me happy. I could care less about my block hours and honestly don't even pay attention to them. I maximize my days off by maximizing my pay on my days on.
Being on the hook 18 days a month is gross. 48 hour layovers are also not appealing to me unless I am with family. This job is just that: a job. The things that matter to me are all at home.
