I work four 8-hr shifts per week, plus usually 1/2-1 hour OT each shift.
I'd like to knock off a day, maybe do three 12's.
Maybe.

I used to do 7 12 hour shifts in a row. I loved it and miss the 7 days off that went with it. I am now Mon-Fri. Like it, but still miss all those days off together. Made travelling nice. Both have perks.
