So how do you balance it when you have a job leader and a unit commander who are both dicks about working with you to help balance the two commitments?

What specifically are you trying to balance? What I’ve found works best is to tell the unit leader you’re not available during work hours on weekdays and do your reserve stuff on evenings and weekends away from work. Minimizes the things you need to deconflict. If I have to do something for the unit on a weekday I’ll just duck out of the office or do it over lunch or from home so I don’t have to mention it to my civilian boss.

So are we all still doing virtual battle assemblies? I got paid for April and will get paid for May, and I did my online training during regular work hours since it counted for a work activity also.

Much respect to my fellow weekend warriors out there. Balancing work and service responsibilities your job doesn’t understand is no easy task.

So my unit (USAR) is doing in person Battle Assembly. Here's the crazy: Its a MUTA-8, so we all show up on Thursday at 0600. Half of us go to the range, half of us stay in the Reserve Center to do administrative tasks.
We flip that on Friday.

On Saturday, those that went to the range on Thursday come in, and they do virtual battle assembly on the Sunday. Flip that for those who went to the range on Friday.
Unit is in MD, I live in VA, range is in VA, and mo buses, so I cross the bridge 4x
