What is a "14/7" schedule? Does that actually mean 14 hour days, 7 days a week? Holy sh*t, I would seriously not do that for three or four times the posted pay. Knock off the drive to and from the airport, which is probably substantial considering you won't be able to afford to live anywhere near it, and you're MAYBE home enough to get 8 hours of sleep at night, if you can fall right to sleep. Not sure when you'd eat, pay bills, and take care of life's other necessities. Personal life? Forget it. No frigging WAY...

NetJets used to run our crews 14 hours consistently, on a daily basis, with the exception of a day or two within the 6 day rotation. It takes its toll on your body after a while.
 
any chance 14/7 means 14 days on and 7 days off?

Not that it makes the job any more appealing, but Millville is in south Jersey, which is a completely different world from that mess up near New York in north Jersey. Believe me, you'd have no problem finding a nice place to live down there near the airport. Job still sucks though.
 
Ah, 14 on 7 off, that makes more sense. Still really sucks, though!
