Just Accepted a New Job

[andyzee]

And I can't wait to tell my boss where he could go! Just waiting for the paper work to come in before I hand in my resignation. And to keep this ski related, the job is going to be rotating shifts of 3 days one week and 4 days the next week. That should allow me to go over the 51 days I skied last season!

Congrats!

I wish I could get a schedule like that... with my old position there is no reason why I shouldn't have been able to... but now I have too many day-to-day tasks

Still in the same geographical area or are you headed north?

Congrats. I'm jealous. I'd love to have that type of schedule.

A. Burn those bridges like it's WWII. Firebomb that crap.
B. What field are you in
C. Sweet.

And good luck...

I've been tempted to nuke them, but logic took over
And thanks to all for the good wishes.

Congrats, Andy. I was hoping you'd say that the job was in New Hampshire but that schedule sounds sweet. I guess we'll be seeing more of you here.

 

[cbcbd]

Geez, what kind of schedule is that? Are you a doctor or drug dealer?

 

[jack97]

Congrats! Burn thoses bridges till they are charred!

Are you a doctor or drug dealer?

Aren't they the same?

Congrats.

It does make me wonder what field allows that type of schedule. I know a few people that work in network operations centers and stuff that get schedules like that. jobs that require shift work often do wacky (great for a skier) schedules where you get more than 2 consecutive days off.

Man, that's a long day!

 

[koreshot]

Long day but I think its worth it when it enables you to have at least a 3 day weekend to go skiing the entire season. As long as its not night shift. That can really mess you up.

For time when I was in the army and Stationed in Munich I had a job where I worked 24hrs and then had 2-3 days off. It is only an hour drive into Austria from Munich!

I was always tired, but the time off was great.
