It all depends on the pay for me. My former job payed well. Never minded over time and worked plenty of it. My present job doesn't pay very good so I don't care much for overtime. Can make more on the side usually. I guess it boils down to, "Money talks, b.s. walks!"

I'm not sure about 12 hour shifts, it would depend on the hours. In any case, I wouldn't whine and moan about it, I'm a big boy and I could either suck it up or get a different job.


I have always though the country would be much more prosperous if the standard work week was 4 10hour days and three day weekends. Those who want to work hard could put in an extra day or two a week and those who were happy with what they earned would have an extra weekend day to spread their money around and boost the economy.
