GraveYard Shift BS

any railroaders out there? moving equipment down the rails setting up for our next project, on the north east corridor.

 

Interesting night here on an observation unit as well!

 

where do you work?

 

Studying for a exam in 6 hours . . . . im a fool

 

I work at Mon General

 

one more night then 5 days off

 

What up night shift

 

brav

just chillin

 

same here

 

ONLY 20 HOURS LEFT

 

Came in for another 12 hr shift.
Machine is crashed, waiting on maint.
Gonna be a long nite.

 

Well, I'm definitely off of nights for the next bid. Admin screwed up the bid as per usual and I was given a new schedule, starting on the 5th I'm 0630-1500 weekends off. So I at least get a normal person schedule for a month. I'm willing to bet I'll be back on nights in November when that bid rolls out

 

of course, just long enough for you to get your sleep right

 

Yeah. We normally have a two month bid cycle, but admin went to a one month so that way they can have a single two month bid for November and December

 

crazy how companies just move people around

 

Yeah. At least I'll have a day off to change my sleep schedule. A lot of people end up working 16 or more hour shifts wen the new bid kicks in

 

i hear that, i had very little warning of the 23 hour shift i have tonight with only two 1.5 hour breaks

 

We switch rotations (8hour shifts 5 on 2 off) every 3 months now. Used to be 12 hour shifts with 4 month rotations with 4 on 4 off.

 

not to bad. i still like mind. work mon-wed. and off for a 4 day weekend every week

 

Hopefully will be getting a promotion soon and be moving on up to days and a M-F 8-4:30 gig. It will be so nice to have weekends back and be on a regular sleeping schedule again.
