You will be on RSV with a 1.5hr callout or Ready Reserve (at the airport) when you start. You will have 10 days off/month=2 days at a time/week typically. If you commute to the left coast, you will be commuting home on one of your days off and back on your other day off UNLESS you can get a FedEx flight where you can fly out late your last day of work and back the night before your first day. IOW, it's gonna be tough. No long call (maybe one day). It's anybody's guess how long you'll be on rsv...we have guys at 2+ years on rsv now and that could go up or down depending on hiring at the major level. In short, it isn't something I'd personally want to do (especialy if you have a family), but you've gotta make that decision. Are you open to moving?
