swing shift


Posted by steve on October 11, 1997 at 05:09:01:

For twenty years I have been working 12hour shifts, rotating from days to nights, or nights to days every four weeks. Work hours are 0600 to 1800 or 1800 to 0600. We work three days one week, four days the next (7 out of 14 days, 84 hours in two week period). Even after all this time my body has a hard time figuring out how to rest/sleep and cope with this work schedule. Anyone work a similar schedule? When and how much sleep do you get?
