Re: I hate work
Working at 7am on a Sunday !!!
Now that is one thing I couldnt do. After getting home at 3am last night, I appreciate my lie in.
I admire you for being able to get up so early.

Re: I hate work
Hmm, 9 hours between shift end and shift start. Doesn't really allow a proper rest of at least 8 hours especially if you consider a need for travel (unless you live on site), eating, washing etc. Strikes me that your employer ought to be looking at the health and safety implications as top whether the time allowances mean you are going to be fit for work.

Re: I hate work

Re: I hate work
I usually work around 44 hours a week.
However, a few years ago, we held an exhibition at work. and I was in charge of technical support for the exhibition (all the exhibits involved either video or computers). For two weeks, I worked from 6:30 in the morning until around 8:00 at night. With 40 minutes to 1 hour journey time (each way). No days off. I was knackered.
It was an interesting experience though.. I actually lost track of which day it was.

Well, OK, I exagerated slightly - it's more like 3 and a half hours ....

How do you cope? I do 50 minutes each way atm, which is ok, but a complete waste of time. In my last job though, I cycled into work in 5 minutes (most of it through a park). I liked that

Re: I hate work
I LIKE my job, I LIKE the shifts, but HATE the lack of decent pay. The only reason I don't change is because of the first 2 points.
