    haha yea but this is 2 months of nonstop night shift lol. By law I'm required to take a day off every 15 days, but other than that, I work every night lol. After about 3 weeks everyone starts getting a little edgy lol

    Reserected from the dead.
    Done in 3 hours. Worked the last 7 midnight's in a row. Get flopped over to the day shift for 2 weeks.

    Looking forward to grilling tonight. Get a few chores out of the way then make dinner for the wife and I.

    Not sure what I want. Wife wants to go vegetarian since we've been eating bad for the last 2 weeks. Every time you turn around, someone has dropped off a goody basket. I still want to grill some meat for me, though. Even a hamburger sounds good right now.

    I'm fortunate to have a true butcher shop about 6 blocks away. I'll fog the glass while I make up my mind.

    Not to be a wet blanket, but I've done the research. It is killing you.
    And my manager wonders why I like staying on nights. Flipping sucks! No good for your health!

    Yeah buddy. We had a 57 day T/A last year and a ~70 day T/A coming in April. That's a long time to work 7/12's (or more) in a row. We have one day breaks though after 13 straight.

    What's the temp. there? It was -8F this morning:eek: 70F inside:D. Years ago when I worked at the trailer plant the winter target temp inside was 50F. Never saw it that warm with forklifts and flatbeds constantly going in and out. The hospital is 70F in the summer and 70F in the winter:thumbsup: But we don't get any O/T. And we can't keep up with the work we got. Give and take:notsure:

    I think we're gonna be around 30-40 days on this one, well see. I'm in it for the $$$ lol. But yea we have the same 1 day break after 14 on. It sucks, but the OT is nice so you learn to suck it up lol.
