redick schedules

[miss.myra]

ever had it when you've got work/other projects/family stuff/etc. turns your once normal schedule upside down? It sucks. I can't see it getting any better for months either. It's tough to make plans or anything. I've honestly been spoiled rotten with a regular schedule before.


Oh, and getting up at 5am really really really lacks.

[Carrie]

I woke up at 2:20pm today.

I love taking days off.

[Ree Fresh]

SLOTS!!!!

ding ding!

[BongMan]

Myra atleast your job doesn't have you jumping around shifts 4 - 1 one night then the next morning 9 - whenever..

[charly]

^ ugh, i did that. it's ass!

i'd much rather wake up at 5am than do that.

[short_one]

Regular scheduale of waking up at 7... schools out so I'm good for a while ~ wOoT

[soma]

you know my pain myra we'll get through it together

[BongMan]

I would love to be back at my old job with my 6 am start time it rocked did it for 3 years..

[thebobman]

how about when just your work schedule is nutbar?
This week:

M: 7am-5pm
T: 8am-9pm
W: 7am-9pm
T: 7am-9pm
F: 7am-6pm

Total: 62hrs

[Grapes]

^ That's unhealthy.

I love my 40 hour, monday to friday work week.

[Ree Fresh]

9am-3pm
mon- thurs... off early Fridays

I dont even have kids and I LOVE IT!

[yoko*]

yup. I work around 5 days a week, and on the two days that I do get off, I'm in classes and in the evenings I'm finishing up on homework...

so there's no such thing as a day off in my world..

:(

[diva]

this is my life for the next six weeks



four 12 hour shifts, back to back, five days off, repeat

2 days 7am-7pm, 2 nights, 7pm-7am

the worst is going to be the switch over from days to nights between days 3 and 4

it's fucking brutal on your system

oh, and getting to richmond by 7 am and leaving richmond to get back to van at 7 am is going to be fun as well

add a few last school assignments to that as well as applying and interviewing for jobs

[diva]

holy shit
i've done my first two days 7-7 tomorrow and thursday will be nights 7-7
i feel like a zombie already

20 more to go
w00t

seriously, though
my nurse is rad and i enjoy the rest of the staff and hospital a lot

[Joanne]

starting july 4, I will be doing the 7am-7pm, , 7pm-7am, 2 days, 2 nights schedule full time for two months.

not to mention keep my part-time mental health care job during the in between days when I'm not working at the hospital.

I told myself I would go through nursing without a drop of coffee or tea. but it looks like I might just have to give in. : /

on the positive note, I'll be able to save up for a sweet ass vacation soon :)

--Joanne :P

[diva]

it will be hard
apparently it's the transition between the day and night that kills you

i'll let you know how it works out

i'm sure you can do it
you're much more disciplined than i'll ever be
=)

[SEAN!]

for the first three eyars of university i worked 60 hours a week including school/work and commuting and i only slept four hours a day, and raved on weekends it was dope and alot of fun. but eventually i had a horrible burnout. so i know how you feel.

[bebu*funfun]

think im burning out from my week right now.. in the worst mood ever.

it was the last week of my school = portfolio hw stuff + training at new work + split shifts at old work + organizing work party + me being stupid as usual and forgetting stuff at home = A LOT of commuting. didnt get much sleep the past few nights.. overworking and taking life a bit too seriously lately.. thumbs up for being gung ho about everything, but now my body just hates me. first weekend in a LONG while where i havent been out.. im very mad at myself.
