Work hours
« on: September 07, 2014, 03:25:56 am »
What hours do you prefer to work, if  you had a choice?

I like my current work schedule, 7:30am to 4:00pm.

I'm retired now but when I worked I was always in as early as possible so that I could get things done and get home as at a reasonable hour to have some at home time.

I prefer the 7a-3p shift which is how my job started; but another manager switched us to 7a-7p shifts.

The 7a-7p shifts are ok if we are fully staffed and don't have to do 4+ 7a-7p shifts as then it seems like I am never at home more than just to sleep and get ready for the next day's 12 hour shift.

I work 8-4:30 but I do have the choice to choose to start at 7:30 or as late as 9:30. I was just thinking about changing my hours to 7:30-4

I would start as early as I could in the morning so I could get out early at the end of the day. Unfortunately my current shift is 8:30-5:30.

I don't work anymore, but when I did my hours were 7 AM to 3 PM.  I love it because I was home by 3:15 and there was still enough 'day' to get things done.

Currently my shift is either 2AM to 10AM or 9AM to 5PM.  I prefer my middle of the night shift mostly because I can get more done without being constantly bothered by others.  Plus, I seem more awake at those hours in general, so it seems to be the optimal time for me.

I work 9 to 5 every Saturday and Sunday, but only from May to October.   Lucky me!
