i belive data they give is time they spend at workplace, not really time they work
I see your point, out of my day depending on the schedule I could have any where from1 to 5 hours of actual down time. The worse part is the hunger. When you just pick up the new trainees you are watching them like a hawk when they eat chow and as soon as they are done you step to your next scheduled training event. The first two weeks we are on the go constantly and when we are not physically with the trainees we have a ton of paperwork and extra dutys to attend to. SO you are sleep deprived, malnurished and usually sick from being around the trainees and required to be perfect no matter what.
Somtimes it's more than hard not to lose your temper when dealing with these kids in that type of environment. I've had to be pulled off a kid more than a few times because I was ready to punch him in throat but that's kinda normal around here.
To top it off we are all perfectionists so we mess with each other alot (rookies, myself being one) catch the brunt of it. I think they could make a case study out of some of us. Sleep deprivation induced terretts syndrome.
The weird part is coming home, I don't know what to do with myself. At least my TIVO has been on.
