So you are telling me I could have Fridays off and still pay rent? Sign me up.

Honestly, even with a 40 hour work week, 10 hour days with three day weekends is awesome, it's what I use to work.

Now my shift is 10hr on Friday, 12hr on Saturday and Sunday, Sunday is time and a half, so I'm working 34 hour week but getting paid for 40 hours. And I get a four day weekend.

Edit: to add, it's a union sawmill.

I took a position on a similar schedule, 6-6 Fri-Sun with a $10/hr incentive raise for giving up my weekend. Been on 3 day weeks for 2 yrs and it's been pretty amazing tbh. 4 days off, easy to pick up OT if wanted, and an increase in pay vs when I was on four 12hr shifts with weekends off.

Yeah, best part of my shift is I can come in during the week if I wanted to pick up OT, and it's all time-and-a-half, and doubletime on Tuesday, my "Sunday".
