“The specialists work long hours,” said Master Sgt. E. J. Glaude, another of the unit’s assistant specialist section chief. “An eight-hour day is a rarity here. A lot of times the turnover briefings are conducted out on the flightline as Airmen transfer shifts.”

Wow! An eight hour day! So they must get at least a few. Try being a crew dog. A 12 hour day is considered a short day. But I'd rather be a crew dog than anything else.

You beat me to it man! At least on the B-1 the crew chiefs worked longer hours than the "pointy heads", I'm sure on the Buff it's the same. Crew chiefs never do get the glory though, nothing new.
