[XRSIKS]

Nice... I just scored Overtime Night tonight.... Public holiday from midnight to 7:00am ..... and overtime ... :P

[HLC]

yay night shift.

im on 3 nights a week, mon, tue and thursday plus sat/sun days until first week of may.


cut a deal with my boss since i liked my casual rate/penalty rate, that if i went full-time i get penalty rate shifts to deal with the pay cut.

[HLC]

im on the public holiday rate tonight too lol 10-6. beauty!

[XRSIKS]

but im on OVERTIME & Public holiday rate :P

[Lightning Strike XR6]

Started at 6 am to 2 pm. Start tonight at 1am finish 12pm. Then start Sunday at 6am.

Fair to say I'm gonna be buggered.

[XRSIKS]

I'm off for 2 nights now, then back on for a possible 7, 1 off, 5 on, 4 off :P

[StAndArdAU]

i do 2days/2nights then 4 off for big mining company. no overtime, no public holiday pay, but i cant complain as it really equals only having to work for 6 months of the year.

still got saturday night to go, then time to it up for Easter!

[XRSIKS]

Lucky you, i have just worked 5 nights, have 2 off, then im working.....7 nights.... then i have 1 off, then im working another 5 :P gotta love overtime, and my inability to realise that putting my name down for it, usually means i get the shifts lol :P

I hate days off, i cant sleep, hence 5:40am im awake, went to bed at 1:30am

[azaxr8]

[XRSIKS]

Sitting on my front porch ... sipping bourbon at 7:45am , waving to all the mothers walking their kids to work, holding up the JD can "Morning!" :P

got to agree - normally i love nightshift, but this time round is not so enthralling. the rest of my team agrees, must be something in the air.... :

got to love the lack of traffic though - at least it's a pleasure to drive to and from work, so that's something always in nightshift's favour.

From work to home is a pain for me, i finish at 7:30am, usualy in the car by 7:30 anyways ;) day staff get here at 7:00am so we off early, but that means im getting all the Tradies going to work in the mornings, so the road is busy , full of people in a rush and driving like idiots, i just take my time and enjoy the fact that im going home

going home to where everyone else on the road wants to be - in bed! : sigh, that is such a good feeling ..... :

[XRSIKS]

i hate first nights back, sooooo tired... on the bright side, i only have 6 night shifts to go over the next 2 weeks, then im back on days

[iCat]

lmao, i detest day shift with a passion! i only do it for a week every 5-6 weeks, but those 7 days seem to last a lifetime. i just cant bring myself to go to bed early, even though i get up at 0330, and by the end of the shift i am so dead....

and the traffic driving home is crap :
