I work 2 days/ 2 nights/ 4 off. These are all 12 hour shifts but pretty much job and finish. I don't take the piss so often only do 10 hours. 1 colleague does as little as possible which means he can be heading home after 6 hours or less on his night shift. If there is no work we CAN go but i hang around as i think it doesn't look as bad when the office bod see the clocking out times. We used to get 12 hours on overtime too but over a 4 night shift he got 48 hours for actually being there less than 20 hours. That was 36 hours of time and a half and 12 at double. I used to say to him to hang it out a bit but if there wasn't much happening he would fly around as fast as Foc so he could go home. This has now stopped and we only get paid the overtime we do (Quite rightly) Just a shame that someone has to ruin it. All new workers have to be on site for a full 12 hour shift or get paid less.
