adrenalinejunki 0 #9 August 4, 2005 I have to work every other weekend no matter what the weather. We work 12 days in a row and then get off 2 days before starting it again. Minimum work day is 12 hours and ussually runs over atleast an hour or 2 everyday. It is 10:21 pm and I just got home from work, been there since 6 am this morning. It's not unusual to for me to go to work thinking I am working 12 hours and end up working 24 hours or more before getting to go home. So far the longest shift I have had to work was 36 hours and then got 8 hours off in a hotel and then pulled another 24 hours. On the weekends that I don't work I am too tired to do anything (except jump). I am a truck mechanic for an oilfield service company. It sucks bigtime but pays good. __________________________________________________What's the worst that can happen? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharimcm 0 #10 August 4, 2005 I have to work every third Sunday, but no Saturdays unless they ask REAL nice. Usually when it is my Sunday to work, the skies are blue and there's not a cloud in the sky. Damn...

peregrinerose 0 #14 August 4, 2005 I work every other Saturday until 3. Although that location is 1.5 hr from my house, it is 15min from the DZ, so by 3:15, I'm at the DZ Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feeblemind 1 #16 August 4, 2005 Unfortunately I work one day of the weekend for three weeks straight, get two weekends off, then work at least one day per weekend for three weeks straight, cycle is repeated throughout the year. This is the one draw back to being a firefighter, but then again we can jump during the week and don't have to fight those fully loaded planes.

GogglesnTeeth 6 #19 August 4, 2005 Yes, I work weekends... grrrrrrr One of the many reasons I want out of the TV business. I try to sneak in a jump or two in the mornings before I have to drive my ass off to make it to work on time. I'll need a few jumps this weekend...... it's been a long week!Goggles and Teeth "You fall like a greased safe!!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

selbbub78 0 #23 August 4, 2005 i have to work every other saturday, but the opposite weekend I get saturday through tuesday off, so it's well worth it. And when I'm done with stuff on saturday I can leave!!! Makes me want to get in at all hours of the morning so I can start jumping in the afternoon!!!
