I work a 4x10 shift.

I got the short end of the stick so I get every Thursday off instead of a 3 day weekend.

Even so, it's made a DRAMATIC difference in my life. I do chores, shopping, and home maintenance on Thursdays, and then actually spend weekends enjoying life with my family.

It's great, but I am also the type of person that would work 2 x 20 hour shifts a week if I could. Long hours don't bother me...the constant grind of eat/work/shower/sleep/repeat in a 5 day work week is what bothers me.
