Official Jon Gruden thread 32.

I forget what the diagram is called, but there is actually a study that shows the life expectancy decrease per year of working swing shift. It's pretty bad.

No wonder I’m so grumpy and anti-social.

I’ve worked swing shifts for 20+ years, it sucks. Some studies claim it takes 10 years off of your life. Oh well... so does UT football lol

Work swings myself. Love the time off

 

[TruVolFann]

He’s 100% correct.

Ya he is... How many players can you name that showed drastic improvement from their 1st play on the field to last night?

Ok guys and girls I'm out. There are better days coming. Somebody call and wake me up if Lyle gets fired today lol.

Punch be careful on the ride home.

Yep, being off during the week is nice.

7 days off every 4th week is nice also

7 days off every 4th week is nice also

I just started this schedule and love it.

Thought I'd hate it at first.

 

[VOLumeS]

Gonna head to bed hopefully I wake up to good news.

I miss it. We went from 3 days one week and 4 the next, to 8 hour shifts. I’ve worked nights on both schedules, but always felt good before. Now working 5 straight nights I feel miserable every day. I sleep good one day a week normally.

We used to have that. Back in 08 we went to 3 crews and have never went back.

 

[Vfl83]

Work 4 off 7, work 4 off 3, work 3 off 1, work 3 off 3 then restart the schedule

Good morning night shift. Went to a dinner last night with an open bar. Didn’t check the score til I got home. Somehow I don’t think it registered. Just woke up and checked again thinking maybe the open bar was affecting my memory.

Nope. That’s an ugly score. I’m sure you all have beaten the dead horse mercilessly overnight. Thanks.

 

[Vfl83]

Actually we are sitting idle production wise right now after a minor setback in Sept. Explosions aren't no joke

That used to be my schedule. Then it switched to work 4 days off 6, work 4 nights off 4, work 3 days/3 nights off 4. I like it better actually. That short turnaround is rough though.

Currently work month on and month off. Travel for the commute comes out of my off time. Commuting to and from Thailand each month is getting old, but the finances cannot be improved in the states.

It was unpleasant for awhile, then we changed the subject to no Gruden/football related stuff.

That was probably the best/only thing to do. Nice work.

Haynesworth said BJ was nothing but a used car salesman

I am not defending CBJ here at all, but Haynesworth is neither the brightest bulb in the bin nor a stellar example of morality. He just likes to pop off for attention.

I know where you work. I'm across the river.
