Boo Hoo . I am one of those hospital workers that worked 12 hr shifts. Once I actually worked 21 days in a row. Just before I retired I was working 10 hr days, 14 days on and 2 days off. Did it for 43 years.
bless you! Bet your back, legs and feet show the years of wear on your body, too. Patient care is hard work!
I don’t think most people mind long hours working—it’s getting paid too little for that work, or working in terrible and/or dangerous conditions that extracts a toll on the worker. People who own their own businesses work LONG hours all the time, as do lots of occupations. Detroit must be like a war zone for its police officers, firefighters, and EMTs. Bad city leaders voted in too many times have allowed this to spiral down to such a sad state of affairs...
