How long are your days?

[john p]

My days are as short as possible ! Really can't be arsed with late finishes and flogging yourself , there's enough cash in this line of work to have easy days and still make a living

Hit it hard and leave in reasonable time, when I was employed years ago now(20)agri fencing my ridiculous boss had me work from 8 till 10 at night on regular intervals a week. Knew no different from leaving school, never again though!!

At the moment I'm working 7.30 till 8pm most days although it was 10pm when I walked in the door on Monday.

 

Working like this isn't sustainable and it effects your health, family life and work.

Usually at yard by 7.30 on site at 8 like to be finished most days between 2 and 3 in pub by 3.30. what's the point in working otherwise!

These days I work as long as I want,normally until the jobs done. Don't start until I've made Mrs Mac breakfast in bed and had a chat as she gets ready for work. Sorry have to do it as it sets me up for the day, having spent 10 years up and out before she even woke and often returning when she was a sleep. These days I'm blessed to spend quality time.

 

Had a great day today up n out hand balled 3 tonne of Crusher run then did 2hours clearing a garden of leaves and broken branches. Only then to spend time with top guy Wisewood shifting a large Cedar trunk for him to carve. Heavy but excellent work.

Couldn't have done any of this if I worked for some one else.

7.30-4.30 for the firm I'm subbing for unless we're on earlies in which case have to be in for 6.30, but have to be up early enough to go to the yard and feed my animals before I go to work and go back to feed them at night and usually cut some logs or something while there so I'm usually out the house about 6.45 and get home around 7,30-8.00

8-3. job an knock on most days. Recently we had a few late ones and night work. And the lads stayed true and cracked on which made me proud

 

 

Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.

Your bang on the money!

 

I'm going on the slow down. Today I was testing an electric motor and I noticed myself shaking.....Not good.
