Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Ugh! 7p-7a shift. That one really stinks. I've done it and for a while had to do it 7 days a week, mandatory! I worked for Dayton Tire Co, in the shipping office and they went on strike. Being a salaried employee, we had to take on the Union guys jobs and of course at their pay rate. I got lucky and got to stay in the office doing my usual job. I feel that our bodies weren't meant to work all night, we are meant to sleep all night. lol We aren't nocturnal! That's cat's, not people. I hope he doesn't have to work it long either. It was hard enough working 7a-7p! I'm sorry you have had such a bad pain day I hope today is a better day for you! My day was a really bad pain day too. I just got up at about 3:15 and so far so good. lol But I've only been up for almost 30 mins. Gentle hugs, ~Tommie you are so right about that. My husband is off today and everytime he came in and saw me on my heating pad. He would just give me a look. But then he is ill at the whole. He just started a new position at work and it is on the 7p-7a shift. He is not a spring chicken anymore. I sure hope he doesn't have to stay on the shift long. He worked it 15 years while the kids were going up and it really took a toll on him. He had been on days for just over a year and it was so nice. Jena ~:~Jena~:~ My Home Page My E-mail .

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Sure glad you got that pain under control. And got your candy made. I haven't even made any this year. But we all Darrell, Beth and me do not need it. Ken my son and Darrell my husband both love to read. I have never been much of a reader unless it was a really good story. I got hooked a couple of years ago on Janette Oakes books. But they are so expensive. I finally quit buying them. Jena ~:~Jena~:~ My Home Page My E-mail Re: Jena shift and pain Ugh! 7p-7a shift.
