Who works 4x10 rather than 5x8?

[CoMoChief]

I work 4x10 now and I ****in love it. 8am-7pm Mon-Thurs, Every week is a 3-day weekend for me. Yes the days are very long at times, but it's worth having that Fri off.

Man is it worth it.

You think a 10 hour work day is very long?

4x10 is awesome. I get 3 days off a week and it is well worth it.

Phone with 3G data plan, secluded bathroom, girly thread.

In all seriousness, I work 5x10, plus a freelance job at night, plus my wife has opened a business that I feel like is my third job, plus I got 2 kids. No sympathy.

"Hey, you and your wife didn't build that business" Glad to see that you are taking advantage of our free market of capitalism. Too bad you are in the crosshairs though by you know who

Some of us don't blame the big bag government for any personal failures. That is what personal responsibility is.

5x8? 4x10?

Try 7x14, minimum...

I would so be into that, especially if it was a job I could "leave" there. Sadly, about any job I work requires I take it home with me and then some.

I used to do that. Loved it. I remember at the time thinking I'd love to to work two 20's with an 8 hour rest period. Then California changed its labor laws around so I work 3x10+6. I still get a three day weekend every week.

This.

I don't have a consistent schedule, but I do have some say in it and can use it to my advantage, for instance, I work tomorrow night then don't work again for a week and not taking a day of vacation time.

4 days off a week is nice though.

I worked 4x12 when I lived in KC, back in the day. I loved it and tried to take my lunch 7 to 8 hours into the shift. As long as you stay busy and avoid watching a clock, it's pretty smooth.

I work 6x14 right now. Sucks ass but only a few more days to go.

We hired a guy to take 40% of my duties so I can work harder in operations and private investigations. The god damned guy got trained, worked a week, (which increased my duties because I had to explain everything to him) the took a fricken vacation for 1.5 weeks.

Ass

I work 3x10 and one 6, with a raise in my hourly pay so that I make as much as the 4x10 guys. It's pretty nice. Only downside is that I work from 0500 to 1530. That is really ****ing early in the morning to start work.
