The rain is falling and I've got an hour left, should be nicely snuggled up in bed soon... Best way to sleep.

Don't know how you blokes with full time night slots do it...
Slightly off topic... Did you end up getting no that promotion at work, is that linked to the new shifts? I recall mentioning that you had a work van / ute now?Quote:

Used to love working nights.... 5pm to 4:30am Monday to Wednesday, 5pm to 1am Thursday..... then a nice long weekend...... also did 2hours a night overtime for double bubble. Money was great too, normal pay for the first 8hrs, time and a half for the remaining, then the double bubble...... never did overtime on Thursdays though.
Shift work on the rigs wasn't too bad either, 1st week days, 6am to 6pm, with overtime if required. 2nd week nights 6pm to 6am..... then home for 2 weeks
same i use to do perminant nights...4 night week...but it gave me 3 days to spend my moneyQuote:

Trouble is after the 2 weeks, I'll be awake all night tonight and sleep tomorrow .lol
PS I'm not allowed to post here any more for next 6 weeks.
Off topic i know but... I like Mud Crab, frozen Mango Yoghurt, long walks and the Beach and Prados, well, maybe not Prados but I'm sure you all get my drift
4 hours broken sleep today, feeling it now. Still got 11 hours to go, problem is if I go home to sleep now and sleep all night I'll be stuffed tomorrow night.ahhh.
