I did 24hr shifts a minimum of two days per week. Most times I did three days per week with 24hrs of OT. I did that from 2000-2017.

Now I do simple 4 x 10hr days.

    Why would you ever do that? And allow it to happen for 17 years???

    Good question. I did enjoy my work 90% of the time. I gave up emergency work when I turned 50. Now I do "uber" ambulance.

    We would take turns. We had an office where we could sleep until the emergency call comes in. Not quality sleep, but, kept you functional. Was only rare occasion you might be busy for a full 24hrs.
