Showers

Last post was a test of posting via email, more on this later.

Standard deployed rules apply to the showers here: water is non-potable, so don't let it get in your mouth. 3 minutes per shower. This is better than it was: just before I got here, the water line for the whole base went down. There were no showers at all for something like 3 days, and then it was a shower every other day for about a week.

The schedule here is going to take some getting used to as well. In the C-130, the deployment schedule was basically one day on, one off, because you needed crew rest for the next day. Since we have the flexibility to swap out crews inflight with Pred, you can predict our hours much more reliably and schedule them much more accurately. The downside is, it means we can work 10-12 hours a day, no days off.
