Printer here. been doing rotating shift for 14years. still not used to it. our hours are 5-1, 1-9, and 9-5. on my press only 2 of us rotate on the nights. my rotation goes, arvo, days, nights, nights etc etc. on nights at the moment.

i like nights where i work. no management on night shift, 2 printers and 2 assistants. as long as the work gets done you can do what you like. i do have internet access but i'm not meant to be on there so only have a browse every now and then. not worth my job over it.

Have a good time at the GP mate.
