Does shiftwork form the basis on which your life is structured and how does it affect you ?
I work shiftwork as a train driver (what in the US is called an 'engineer'). Been doing it for over 30 yrs. Being a full 24/7/365 operation with start/finish times that are never the same day-to-day there's basically no such thing as a social life, and it makes dating, making friends, and building romantic relationships very difficult. I live on my own, and don't own my own home. I've had two long-term relationships that have collapsed partly due to doing shiftwork.
Do you do a shiftwork job and have you been doing it basically all your working life?
How does it affect your work/life balance, and do you still have any sort of social life?
Do you do it purely for the extra money associated with not being a mon-fri office-hrs-only job or because you actually like the work and the money is secondary?
