What's the hardest work schedule you ever had?

For me it was when I worked in the kiosk on the local ferries.

Week 1:
Tuesday: 12 pm to 8.30 pm
Wednesday: 05 am to 12 pm
Thursday 12pm to 8.30pm
Friday: 05 am to 12 pm
Saturday: 2 pm to 7pm
Sunday: 05 am to 2 pm
Monday: 12 pm to 11pm

Week 2:
Tuesday: 05 am to 12.30 pm
Wednesday: 12.30 pm to 11 pm
Thursday: 05 am to 12.30 pm
Friday: 12.30 pm to 11 pm
Saturday: 05 am to 02.30 pm
Sunday: 02.30 pm to 11 pm
Monday: 05 am to 12.30 pm

Then one week off

Week 4 and 5: the opposite shifts of week 1 and 2

Week 5: off




I did this for 5 whole years AND was on call for extra shifts.


One week I worked double shifts every day. I literally had no skin left on my toes afterwards. I wish I was exhaggerating.
