17:24My uncle works a job like that, he's a marine engineer that does engine maintenance on big ships at sea
17:26:_KannaScared::_KannaScared:
17:30I had a friend who worked oil fields, and he did 3 months on, 3 off.
17:30I need my office separation :_KannaLmao:
17:30like a pirate ship!! finding the one piece
17:33:_KannaScared::_KannaScared:
17:41If it wasn't because of the military I would have never worked 9 months in a row.
17:52The money must be really good for a job like that
18:04Remember to sneak some oil into your pocket and you'll be rich in no time
18:08There's downtime, but you're on site. They call it FIFO (fly in fly out) where I am
18:10or the shift working, not only 9-5 exists
18:17It's tough on family life, his wife had to take care of 2 kids while he was away on a ship for 3 months
18:31My cousin serves as engineer on a navy ship for 3 - 4 months, pays very good
18:36Soon we all need a J*b
18:41:_KannaNoted::_KannaNoted:
19:14I wouldn't want a job like that, would be hard to watch Kanna every day :_KannaKamoHug:
19:16@TotallyNotAFox Very true. The payscale for an engineer plus hazard pay is insane
19:31:_KannaNoted::_KannaNoted:
19:35Ohh that’s the worst :_KannaDed:
19:39Shift work is the worst:_KannaScared:
19:45Cousins of my friend work in an oil rig and their salary is almost as much as average people make in a year
19:51I couldn't manage that. I want my routine :_KannaDed:
19:53I do rotating shift too, one morning, one afternoon, one night week
20:03A lot of my friends do shift work and it's nearly impossible to schedule hangouts. They never get weekends off
20:06my friend has a job working in a cruise ship, the salary was as much as a nurse, 8 months of work based on contract while travelling
20:08That sounds like a nightmare:_KannaScared:
20:10@UnknownVagrent1027 Former Army here... and thank you for your service :red_heart:
20:14As long as the rotation pattern is predictable, it makes it easy to plan around it
20:21thats exactly my thing Kanna, except not nursing but you know
20:34i need consistent time slot for sleep:_KannaScared:
20:34Sounds a lot of work :_KannaScared::_KannaDed:
20:39Back at you, @AuntieInari Prior combat Corpsman
