I think he glues people back together, and provides comforting cuddles to broken folk

Yeah, when I'm working on a team it's drive anywhere in the country, then do any given set of 12 on-12 off until the end of the stint, then drive home from wherever you may be. It's a bit crap but you get used to it, and there's always an end in sight.

My personal record on nights is 28 12 hour nights in a row.

When I'm working by myself, it's another story, I get paid per the job, so keep my own schedule. As a result, I work some very weird hours. I tried Mon-Fri 9-5 once. It was weird... I didn't like it
