Too much everclear....or, maybe it was the cherry coke. Just woke up in my recliner holding my head and moaning.
Good Morning, my friends.

Another prime example where passing out/falling asleep with your PV will not start you or your house on fire!
Feel better!
Hey, Y'all....
Top o' the day to you. The margaritas are on me....c'mon to my garage. Done vaped myself silly comparing the Lavatube and Inferno with tube tanks, an Inferno with a 2.0 DC carton, the eGO-T and four 510-Ts. The Desert Ship 24mg 100% PG is pure-D delicious and complements the island drinks very nicely. If you can't make it, enjoy the race tomorrow and end up with a great weekend behind you.
Will try to check out around 0600 EDT, but if I don't I wish all of you a wonderful day anyhow.

I am set up with a case of beer and lots of tasty FC strawberry in my SD, green setting on the EVO
I like night shift fine, but it's only one week (seven days straight) every 14 in my rotation. There are also 3 weeks of afternoons (2x 7 day work weeks, 1x 5 days) and 2x eight day weeks of morning shifts. The rest are 5 day Monday to Friday weeks of morning shifts.
Morning shifts are 07:00 to 15:30
Afternoons are 15:00 to 23:30
Nights are 23:00 to 07:30
Turnarounds are the hardest part. I just ended a week of nights. friday I got home at 09:00, slept 8 hours, stayed up 7 hours, slept 9 hours, stayed up 11 hours, slept 2 hours, stayed up 5, slept 3.5 and here I am, wide awake at 06:30. I have to be in for my first afternoon this weds. At least I have 4 days off. Going from afternoons to days, we only get 2 days off to adjust.
The joys of working in a small 24/7 environment.

I can't complain too much (well I can but no one listens lol). I have 7 night shifts every 6weeks. 12hrs. The rest are 12hr days. After tomorrow night I will have a week off......and I agree the hard part is switching back. I have a 10 yr old kiddo so I have to switch back pretty much the next day..... My friends and my daughter know to expect a tired and grumpy deb for a day or two lol.
Work for me is straight nights 5:30pm to 4:00am monday to thursday one week and monday to friday the second week. I have been working straight nights for 8 years and did shift work before that.
Pretty much my old gig. Swing day was Saturday; S-S-M-T alternating biweekly with S-M-T, 1800-0600 hours and biweekly pay periods ended and began at 0600. 8 Hours built-in overtime on my long week; 11 paid holidays annually; 8 hours pay for non working ones and double time and a half for the ones I worked.
I feel for the folks who rotate....I'd have quit, but for those who think working only 14 shifts per month is a gift, you're dead your first day off and the first day back always worked out to be a 30 hour period awake. The gift part is I could sacrifice sleep if I had to get something done during the day on a work night.
Many shifts came with an additional 4 hours tacked on the front, or 5 hours stuck on the end, especially on the weekends. Very liberal call-in policy and wasn't unusual for people to call off 5 minutes before you were to be relieved. The great thing about the job was no bosses or a crowd like on day shift to trip over for 12 or more hours. 17-1/2 years straight on night shift. I think I saw my plant superintendent and plant manager a dozen times at seminars; I know I didn't get more than a dozen messages during the last 12 years.
Ahhhhh....the joys of government/public service. Crab in the bucket crap and interpersonal drama. Managed to avoid most of it by being on nights, but was happy to retire and I do not miss the people. I communicate with only two ex-night shift coworkers. No more government jobs for this kid.
