Nightshift experiences?

[Str8 Jacket]

OMG! PILLOW FIGHT!!!

But Craig misses out, cause he's on night shift!

Good on ya Sully and congratulations.

Are you in a position to elaborate on what the producing line will be producing?

Thank you an yes.

Stepping over all the girly bollocks weft lying around in this thread.

That's better.


I'll be printing extruded aluminium aerosol cans. Cool wee process where multiple colours are layed down on one roll of the can using flexographic plates.
A little different from what I trained in but that's part of the attraction.
Will be a challenge for a while though.

I'll excuse that particular type of girly bollocks, the picture that is.

Now the real question is....what benefit will your new job have for the art of bucketing?

Yeah we're into the serious questions now.

I will have easier access to the type of machinery used to change pieces of metal from one shape into another. That side of things isn't my job as such so I can't be to presumptuous about what I can start producing,

just yet

So by the sounds of it...you could at least print the Norf Welly Massif logo (yet to be designed) onto your megaphones using a cool wee process where multiple colours are layed down on one roll of the can using flexographic plates.

You're learning so fast you'll be able to do it yourself soon.

We must get that logo designed so we can start infesting the web with it.

There are some great sounding night experiences in this thread.

Congrats on the new role Mr Bucketaholic. Even a change in jobs provides you new ways to indulge in bucketing.

Guess what my job is...

I've only been working shifts for 35 years, and once I get the hang of it I'll let you know what its like.

I started on 7 x 16:00 - 24:00, 1 off, 6 x 08:00 - 16:00, 1 off, 7 x 24:00 - 08:00, 6 off.
That was great as it effectively gave me a week off every month, and I could sleep part of the night shift.

Next was 7 x 16:00 - 24:00, 1 off, 7 x 08:00 - 16:00, 2 off, 7 x 24:00 - 08:00, 4 off.
Not quite as good, but still not too bad.

Then it was 2 x 19:00 - 07:00, 1 off, 2 x 07:00 - 19:00, 3 off.
That was good as the body never adapted to the night shift and I still had plenty of time off for riding.

Next we changed to 2 x 07:00 - 19:00, 2 x 19:00 - 07:00, 4 off.
Almost perfect.

However I reckon another 10 years of shift work, and if I haven't adapted to it by then I might just give it away.

[Sully60]

Thanks Jantar.

That just about took me a whole shift to read

Those shifts seem pretty long, whats reason for the 12 hour shifts?

Sorry, I'm not sure what you do for a job.

I've spoken to a few long term shiftworkers, I come from a family of them and most like you find a way to use the timings to their advantage.

I'm only doing fixed shifts 23.00 to 07.00 5 days starting Sunday night when I go onto that shift.

It means I don't miss out on too much time with Number One and Sully One. I imagine Fridays and the weekends will be the interesting time, coming off 5 days at the opposite end of the clock to daytime hours.

I shall find out soon enough.
