I have taken on a second job so I am working 12 days straight, luckily some are just 4 hour shifts though.
What's the longest you have worked?

Haha, It cant have been recently because you are always on here.:D
When my husband worked on the railway years ago he only had every other Sunday off so worked 13 out of every 14 days.
It's never a safe bet to argue that a person is on here too much and can't possibly also be holding down a job or working hard
Wouldn't do it again.
Sounds awful.
Nearly killed me (exaggeration).
Surely you must be able to get some help?
It was pretty much bed, food, taxi, work, food, work, food, work, taxi, bed every day for seven weeks.
That happened about 18 years ago. I was paid well, but never again. My limit these days is a fortnight excluding weekends.
Over the whole 9 weeks though I think I had about 10 days off.
Hard work pays off, Infact I don't remember the last time I had a day off.
These days it's mostly about 5 days from 10-6 for me, and we get 2 Fridays off a month. Sometimes we come in weekends or work through the nights if we need the extra time to get something done, but it's made up to us another time so we can have an extra day off when it's quiet. We get double time as well for working overnight so I don't usually complain!
Thank god for the ‘Working Time Directive’ I say!
(ships don't just stop and everyone goes home)
What sort of ships were they?
