So what do all us shiftworkers do for a crust? I've got two more 1800 starts and 4 off. Bring on the beers and fishing.
Hi mate - don't really do shifts - just baby shifts! Got twin girls now about 11 weeks old so full time work day, full time daddy nights! Work in telco in the daytime.
Jas
That'd be pretty full on mate. We don't have any little ones as yet but I can tell It's going to be interesting when we do having two shiftworkers in the house.
G-day James. Shifty boily/welder / mill maintenance fitter here.. work a 3x8hr shift 5-7 days a week depending on maintenance..
Full time dad inbetween like jas though to a 2yr old and 5week old.

Hey guys - 'nother night of baby night shift! How you all going tonight?
Jas
yeah good mate hows the little uns going not crying too much i hope
Nah - all asleep at the moment. Just tossing up whether to get some zzzz's or wait up. Damned if you do, damned if you don't! If I go to bed they'll wake in 30 minutes - if not they'll sleep until 5am! How's your night going?
Jas
bloody slow but you never know some times it will be slow all night and in the last hour sh@t hits the fan and your running on empty much like having your baby as you asleep now but when you just shut your eyes they wake up.
how old are your kids Jas
Hey mate - twin girls - 12 weeks old..... :) Got two boys 11 and 9 also but they're with their mum (former wife) but when they're around glad I've got a seven seater!
Jas
not surprised especially trying to squeeze in between the child seats nowadays. I have just one 15mth old girl and she is a handful as it is cant imagine twins.
do you have them set up in their own room or in your room??
just asking because we started off in our room because my wife was paraniod about sids and we struggled for 6 years before we got this little one so she is very precious and protected to my wife. we moved her to her own room when she was 6mths
Hey mate - nah - in their own room. We'd never get any sleep in if they were in with us! I hear you on the SIDS though - scary stuff!
Jas
Hey guys - anyone up tonight? Or just me?
Jas
I'm here, bright and bubbly. lol
