used to do :
06:30 - 15:00
10:00 - 17:00
14:00 - 23:00
23:00 - 07:00
rotating weekly. only got the weekends off. worst shift was backshift (14:00 - 23:00) cos you couldnt really get a night out. nightshift you couldnt get a swallow that night and early shift - you didnt really want to get up at 05:15 after a bevvy session.
Now that's a proper shit shift lazarus, no wonder its a "used to work" shift, foc that!!!!

Aye mate - especially when we were the ONLY group in the plant doing the nightshift. Only us, the cleaners and security on site during the night.
had a good few laughs along the way though.
