I live a hour and fifteen minutes from the airport. Usually get up at 3:00 for a 7:00 AM flight on Mondays, returning Thursday’s. Tried an 8:00 PM flight today arriving after connection at midnight. Delayed until 1:20. So is going to bed at 2:00 and better than getting up at 3:00? 🤷🏼‍♀️ Leaving Wednesday night though.

Why do you get up 4 hours before your Monday flight? You don’t need to leave for the airport until 4:45 or so, right?

Mine was:
11am flight on Sunday (leave home by 9-9:30am) West coast to east coast.
Monday or Tuesday - at least 1 all nighter.
Monday to Thursday - 13-16 hour days
8pm flight on Thursday. East coast to west coast.
12 hour day Friday and 5-10 hours Saturday work.
Rinse. Repeat.
Needless to say I left.
Quit for more money and zero travel.

Do all of you still work a full day Friday? Or are Friday’s more relaxed and you don’t have to come in.

I work all day Friday, but don’t have to come into the office. In my experience the “Friday’s are relaxed and filled with extracurriculars” is just a lie they tell you during recruiting.

Think of it this way - when we sell a project we sell based on a full week of work, not 80% of work. So it’s rare that a project is scoped to allow this.

Depart 5:10am tomorrow and depart Friday after 5pm

You need to quit

Varies by project
