@ueo is not wrong... some of the time.

During training your time will be very limited, for obvious reasons, but once you're in the battalion they try to keep working hours as normal as possible, with weekends off etc, as operational commitments permit.

You might have to do various scheduled duty periods during the average month though, which can see you working out of normal hours, but (unless you're naughty and the RSM nails you) you should have alot of notice for those tasks.

lol no. We work 8-4 or some variation there of 90% of the time. When we’re in the field yes it’s 24/7, and you’ll likely spend 2-3 months if the year in the field. This whole on duty at all times thing falls apart when you realize we have rules about doing things while on duty or not.
