I have been looking for manufacturing, assembly, production positions all over the Midwest. It’s absolutely shocking how many of them want you to work rotating shifts.
Look at the image I submitted. That company wants you to work 3rd shift one week, then 2nd shift the next, then 1st shift the next, and then repeat it over and over. How in the hell is that healthy?
And this requirement for rotating shifts is prevalent in so many job ads now. WTF is going on with the world?

Eh, I just think 12 is too much no matter how you slice it. I’m in security and after the 8th hour, my brain is fried.
In CA you get overtime after 8 hours a day, so 4/12s are quite lucrative. I just plan to do literally nothing but work on those days. Work, sleep, work, sleep. Live life on your 3 day weekends.
I find I’m just as frazzled after 8 hours as I am after 12, might as well get a ton of money and an extra day off.
