GraveYard Shift BS

Oh yeah I know what you mean we have 3 different floors, my floor is rehab and acute care, the 2nd is geriatric long term, and the 3rd floor is the Alzheimer's lock down unit, we have 44 residents on each floor and like yours they are active at night.

 

I am so ready for sleep, turkey and dressing and sleep , all in that order lol anyone going to brave this crazy thing they call Black Friday that starts on Thursday?

 

Sleep well Kevin.

 

Black friday is worse than crazy around here. I'll pay full price or order online. Mom works in the ER and we see tons of crazy stuff because of people trying to fight over deals

 

Same here Greg,there is nothing worth it to me to get out in the madness lol

 

Ok guys I'm out, hope everyone has a happy thanksgiving and please stay safe

 

Will do.

Gotta put on my T-giving game face to battle with the fam. Always a riot. Always have fun. Just got to keep an eye on the Uncles, they like their wiskey. They start to get kind of loud after they have toasted the clan...lots of times.

With that said, this is the first T-giving that I have completely off in 20 years. Years past I was either going to work directly after dinner or leaving work early to get to the fam dinner. Shift work can be strange with the schedule.

I'll be honest, this shift can be a mofo and I honestly don't believe the mojority of the population could make it work. WE ARE A SPECIAL BREED.

I've actually witnessed 3 individuals get hired in after the months long hiring process, work their first set of midnight shifts, then tell HR they are quitting.

 

I'm staying home with the grand kids, making popcorn and watching movies. While my crazy kids let themselves get sucked into the madness. Oops, I think my grumpy old man side is showing again.

Do the same Melissa.

Hiya Kirk

for Thanksgiving completely off ... sounds like you've earned one.

 

Morning, Rob.

1 hr to go and I'm parolled for 48 hrs.

 

5 more hours for me and off 'til Friday night.

Enjoy it ... and have fun with those uncles.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

 

True, I was able to get this weekend off, but I'll be working Xmas. Oh well the money is good

Thanks Rob, Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgivings! Glad to hear she's feeling better

My wife and I vowed years ago to avoid that madness! Besides we are in the north woods with her family, there is much better things to do up here

Helps to have a understanding wife Alot of people won't even apply if the job description includes nights.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Getting ready for the big day: Food, Football!, Friends, and Family!

 

Enjoy man!

 

Back at it....on Thanksgiving.

 

Hope you get some others to keep you company as the night rolls on.

Later

Kirk

 

I worked too bro. Inhaled a plate and the phone rang. Still on call till Monday.

 

I bet a service call on a Holiday costs a truck load!!

 

Not enough in my book. I got my 8 plus time to and back home. I was going to do a 2nd visit at mil but they had finished eating and I was muddy.

 

What's the dumbest call you've ever had?

 

Good question.
Idk.
Call about a leak when it's raining and it's obvious a roof leak?
But I'm dealing with a good fk up right now. Somebody no longer with us was sent to install 2 new 200lb grinder pumps on a rail system couple months back. Both are shot from leaking thru the cord. I've got one on truck that just came back from manuf and am doing that in am.

 

Still early but pulling a 6-6 and im already getting bored in this security vehicle. Whats the topic of discussion tonight
