    I liked my 4 days 10 hour schedule. Currently on 12hr days and a 5-5, 4-5, 5-4, days on - days off rotation. I like it even more although it seemed weird at first. After doing 10 hour days 12 hours isn't so bad especially getting 4-5 days of rest.

    I loved 12s when I did them. I'm not saying to work yourself to death, I mean I did 3 12s a week, and it was amazing. Especially if you start early in the day? 6 to 6 and you've still got the ability to do stuff at night. Not like, ragers or anything, but like, dinner plans.

    Best thing was that it was a small nursing home, 20 beds, so they fed us breakfast lunch and dinner. The food was meh, but better than fast food, and the savings were amazing!

    If management didn't stick their heads up their own butts, I'd probably still be there. But I noped out when the owner brought her step son in to run the place. He was... A piece of work. Confidently uninformed. Arrogantly incorrect. Held on high by Mommy.

    Weekends are just two more days of working for me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I work 9-5 weekdays and 8P-3A Sa - Th, so my real weekend is Friday because I can sleep in Saturday morning.

    You have two full-time jobs and only squeeze in sleep, travel and personal maintenance in the 6-hour gap between 5 PM and 8 PM on weekdays? Damn...I'm sorry.

    Try to do your homework in class i.e. slip chores into the week as much as possible, and then free up a rest and relaxation day. That seems to work best for me.

    For about 10 years there I never even had two days off in a row. Granted, an upshot to that was at least one day was usually a weekday, so places were actually open and you could get apointments made and stuff done and all that. But then that, too, becomes its own work day.

    That’s where I’m at currently. I have to book off if I want two days off in a row. It’s not the worst though, as I usually only work 2-4 days straight before a day off. Not always, I have done 10 day stretches before, but it’s typically only 2-4 days in a row.
