it was insanity looking back on it. On first hitting the schedule I hadn't had a day off in five weeks and was really wondering what I had gotten myself in to. Got the word out we were inviting disaster/s without paying attention to fatigue. I was told, and this is verbatim, "son, this is war, get with it" to which I replied "yeah, we're waging war on ourselves" and promptly departed. Two days later all pilots would have one day off per week if possible. Was proud of myself until they made the usual days longer!? Just couldn't win unless the Price of Exit hit, or a years toll hit the calendar.
