Aren’t you technically always on duty/call when in the services? 😀

‘Technically’ – I like that expression! No way, if you are ‘on leave’, no way was I being called for duty! Even when the station had exercises, they always had to start them at 5am in the morning to ensure they got the best response. Any earlier and some would have hang-overs from the night before and any later and others would be ‘uncontactable’. That was it, we could only be attacked in the early hours of the morning. ‘Technically on duty’…..get real! 😉
