Congrats to you, ezplt1. Everyone finds their niche and what works for them. Seems like you found yours. As arjmjj asked, are you commuting, because that is a large factor in QOL, and it can affect your sked preferrence. I commute, so week-on-week-off works very good for me. My wife has acclimated to it, and she likes it, too. (Hopefully not for bad reasons

)
Again, congrats to you.
