If on shore duty you can expect to work a normal 40 hour work week. With the possibility of a duty weekend every 4 to 6 weeks. At sea you will work 12 to 14 hours per day.
Can't speak for the Army but I am sure it is very similar while state side or in the field.

Hello Mee Wee, Do you want to become a professional chef after the Navy? Use the Post 9/11 G.I. Bill to attend cullinary school - college? Do you watch the FOOD NETWORK? Rachael Ray earns $18 million dollars a year and she is not some electronic technician working for someone else for hourly wages! Don't worry about being promoted in the Navy. That will come when it comes. If you WANT to be a chef when you get tired of sailing on the high seas on a 5,000 man aircraft carrier then be a Food Service guy - if the Navy will let you. You could end up at Las Vagas at a hotel being the Executive Chef or being chef on a cruise ship. FOOD is a job where they are always hiring! Good times or bad times - people ALWAYS have to eat. Engineering and Social Work is not cracked up what people think it is. I served 16 years in Radar Electronics Maintenance and where I retired there were no industries that needed people in a variety of electronics jobs. Because I earned my B.S. degree while in the Air Force I qualified to become a Probation Officer and served 12 years at the courthouse and retired a second time. One grows out of their military job specialty as they get older. 20 years later your interests change. Anchors Aweigh, Larry Smith Senior Master Sergeant, USAF (Ret.) First Sergeant

Every one works long hours when a Navy ship is at sea. I don't think the cooks work any longer than any one else.

CSs (Navy cooks) work longer on ships at sea. At sea, ships serve 4 meals a day, including mid-rats (midnight rations).
