Afternoon SAM, I should have been on nights starting tonight but I am taking a couple of days of vacation so I will not be back until next Friday, July30th.

My work schedule is a 28 day rotation with 14 days and 14 nights. It goes something like this, Monday is the start of the work week so my schedule goes like this:
Mon-days,Tue-off, Wed & Thur-Nites, Fri,Sat,Sun & Mon-off,Tue-nites, Wed & Thur-off, Fri,Sat,Sun & Mon-nites
Tue & Wed-off...Thur & Fri-days Sat,Sun & Mon-off, Tue & Wed-off, Thur & Fri-off and to wrap it up Sat 7 Sun days.

Ha ha can you keep that straight...I work 48 hours one week and the 36 hours the next week. All and all it is not a bad schedule. The only pig in the ointment is that one of the guys on the rotation opposite mine retired rather suddenly and we have no one to take his place, so I get to work at least one extra day every week, usually.

By taking a couple of well placed days off I can get three or four 10 day vacations and still have a couple of 6 day vacations as well.

How about that Armstrong fellow, climbed up that mountian like a scalded cat, eh.

Regards
