Don't get me wrong this job has rewarded me with a good life style but after 20 yrs it gets a little old

I've been in your shoes quite a few times. When at the power plant. Did a lot of 16hr days, back to back. 112 hours in 1 week.

Now I'm laying on the porch to speak of .

Good Morning all!

Worked a bit over yesterday & didn’t get a timeout; layed down before 8pm,,,now up & ready to get this day started!
Gonna coffee up & get to shop early; may go ahead & service Toyota early (7500mi.) & send sample in for inspection.....mfg. recommended 10k sounds like a lot; but “Blackstone-Labs” will know.
Only 6-12’ish on the clock today & back to the house for a short nap & then aboard the “Lawnmower”

The first one is the worst because I'm up over 27 hrs. And that just throws the whole system out of wack
But 112 hrs in a week, it takes a lot to bounce back from that!
I salute you my friend!

My sleep pattern is Fudged up; as I was on a swing shift 10-7’ish & sometime was 10pm getting off...then got moved Friday a week to morning’s (7-3:30’ish).....just felt wore out at the end of day.
Due to recent 3 & 3:30pm “Firetruck” roadcalls & nobody on that shift; shop operations mgr. has been having to take them himself.
Monday- back on my (10 to when) shift,,,I like that better & can focus on some project jobs that are currently tore down in shop.
We work on everything from weed eater/lawnmowers to tractors,Dumptrucks,backhoes,trackhoes (mini & 330’s),,,and don’t forget Firetrucks!
Engines,Tankers,Ladders,etc....
Police cars & Ambulances are repaired & serviced on light side of shop.
