We dont bid for schedules. We all work five days a week with two days off. We bid for days off. Its not the one weekend a month and AT thats the issue. Its the "other" stuff as a commander I have to do. For example I had to go to a four day conference in addition to my normal two day drill. I habe to another two day confence next month.
It doesnt matter anymore, they terminated me last night and refuse to tell me why. They say they dont have to because it is a rite to work state. It has really put a sour taste in my mouth for this industry. It was never like this in the mlitary and I am strongly thinking of going back active duty.
Sorry guys. I am just not used to this kind of treatment from a profession.
