Are you in the Navy?

Question

How many hours a week do you work? What's your job?

Answer 1

Shore duty Sailors generally work 0700-1600 (7 am to 4 pm).
Sea duty is different and varies from ship type and rating. For most, personnel will generally stand 6 hours of watch followed by two hours of training/qualification and two to four more of maintenance and repair.
The Submarine Force is different, as they work on an 18 hour day instead of 24. They will stand watch for 6 hours, train/drill/qualify for 2-4 hours, do maintenance and repair for 2-4 hours and try to sleep for 4-6 hours.

Answer 2

No, I am not in the Navy anymore.

When I was in, it depended upon where I was stationed.

On shore, it was pretty much 40 hours per week plus an occasional duty watch shift a couple times a month.

At sea, it was 12 on and 12 off 7 days a week. Plus man general quarters station during drills. Because I worked the night shift, 7pm to 7am, this meant another 4 to 8 hours every other day or so during the day. Because the Captain only did drills during his working hours. So time working at sea could often be well over 100 hours per week.

I was an avionics mechanic.
