memoryitems:
It's not just you, I get PM's and e-mails from former colleagues asking exactly the same thing.
It can not have been more clearly stated: this is not in anyway a commuting or commutable job.
You get one block of 5 days per month, they can and will use you until midnight on the day before those days start and they'll have you in at 4 am after they finish. The block of days off is flexible to the company when operational requirements justify. Remember we are very short of Pilots and operational requirement has priority.
I like the job but please forget commuting, if you want to stay at home then find a job close to home. This job is in Saudia Arabia.
No more commuting questions!!!
