I like the way my shifts work. It’s a nine week rotation of 12 hour shifts for 37.5 hours average per week that goes as follows:
D D D 7.5STAT OFF OFF OFF
OFF N N N OFF OFF OFF OFF
N N N N OFF OFF OFF
OFF D D D D OFF OFF
OFF OFF D D D STAT7.5 OFF
OFF OFF N N N N OFF
OFF OFF OFF N N N OFF
OFF OFF OFF D D D OFF
OFF OFF OFF D D D OFF
It works quite well, as your body gets a chance to adapt to the night shifts, and it seems you’re never there, though the time spent is the same as any poor office schlub who has to commute with the rest of the lemmings.
An additional bonus is that if you plan it right, you can get 11 consecutive days off and take only 3 shifts as vacation!
Your post somehow turned me OFF..;)
Good rotating shift! I have noticed I tend to spend more if I have too much time off. ;D)
