Desired workday?

Just out of Bordem I wanted to see what everyone's favorite/ideal work hours are. I've worked overnight, morning, evening. All I could imagine. Although graveyards mess with sleeping/eating schedule as well as social life I honestly love graveyards the most. What do you all prefer? I'm currently on
Mon-Fri 5am-3pm

 

4-10s

 

That's what my graveyard shift was and I loved it!

 

I like this...

 

I like working for myself. I set my own hours. I'm not real busy right now so today I probably won't even work. I will have to work this weekend, so today can be my day off.

 

Ideal life for everyone haha

 

I pretty much work whenever work needs to be done. 3 a.m., 3 p.m., doesn't matter to me. Some weeks I don't do very much at all, some weeks are 90 hours. I've been doing this for years. I can't keep regular office hours. It would drive me nuts.

 

When I was independent, I loved it... worked when I wanted to and only needed to work around 2 weeks out of every 6...

Now I'm a working fool again... 9-80 schedule...

 

I work 12-7 during the week and 11:30-8 which I can't stand on the weekends

 

Having been self employed for years I enjoyed the ability to set my own hours even though I don't think I ever actually worked more hours at any point in my life.

Assuming I had/have to work a ~40 hour week, I'd pick something like 3/13s Tue, Wed & Thur something like 9a to 10p.

Currently I'm doing 4/10s, day shift (new for me) with the boot on my throat.

 

I finally achieved the optimum working hours about 13 years ago when I retired.

 

Six twelves followed by one eight. Do that for ten weeks, then take ten weeks of vacation. The twelves are kind of messed up, eight hours on, four hours off, four hours on, eight hours off. The vacation time makes up for it.

 

Generally I get to work around 7, leave around 3:30. I go get lunch every day, but it's usually 15 minutes to run and grab something and work while I eat.

Except today I got here at 5:30 and am still here.

Salaried = give and take. Great flexibility, but at the expense of some long days here and there.

I like starting earlier in the day and leaving before 4.

 

Nice!
I retired from the Army in 2007, worked for myself a couple of yrs, now with a State job.
Every other Monday off flex schedule. Works for me.

 

3 12hour shifts friday-sunday then have the whole week off. its nice but never having weekends is getting old. my old job i would work 10 days a month 24hrs. the rest spent with a cigar and drink in hand.

miss that everyday

 

Currently working 4-10's. 1500-0100 with Sunday, Monday, Tuesday off. I like it.
I stay busy but also have some down time later in the shift. I would prefer to work just graveyard as I make more and work less. Lol.

 

M-R, 4-10s

 

If i could pick a shift schedule it would be 3- 12 hour shift tuesday through thursday. currently working 7am to 3pm mon-thurs and 8am to 6pm on friday

 

I've worked 24 hours every third day for the last 18 years. It's awesome working every third day (24/48) and you have a weekend off when you get off. Take a day off, well you got 5 days off really. Sucks when you're up all night but sleeping all night and getting paid is nice too.

 

I like the graveyard. But ideally I'de work 4, 10s from 10AM-8PM. But since that is not an option I'll take graveyard
