Alright so I worked there for a year. Its hard to explain. I’ll do my best.. you get paid every two weeks and your work 80 hours in those 2 weeks. But one week you work 20 hours and the next week you work 60 hours. So the shifts go two days on, two days off, two nights on, two days off, three days on, two days off and then switched completely. Every shift block is an opposite shift. L

This sounds like a shift that designed to kill you. You’d be better off driving your car into a bridge pier.

Basically. I did it while I was pregnant and went back after the maternity leave. It was short lived, I look back and have no clue how I did it. In my exit interview I let them know their practices were like an abusive relationship, every time we said we couldn’t do it anymore they would offer us more money to stay and deal with it.

On your 60hr week do you get overtime pay?
