minus-square😈MedicPig🐷BabySaver😈@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up18·1 年前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.
minus-square_wampa__stompa@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·1 年前Why would you ever do that? And allow it to happen for 17 years???
minus-square😈MedicPig🐷BabySaver😈@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 年前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.
minus-squaregorillakitty@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 年前Wtf is uber ambulance? And thanks for your service.
minus-square😈MedicPig🐷BabySaver😈@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 年前Ha! “Uber” ambulance is non-emergency transport. We take patients that are at rehabilitation facilities and bring them to medical appointments.
minus-square😈MedicPig🐷BabySaver😈@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up12·1 年前Paramedic. Possible by trying to sleep between emergency calls.
minus-squareperil33@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 年前What job and country? I need to stay far far away from that
minus-square😈MedicPig🐷BabySaver😈@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 年前Paramedic, U S. Most EMS and fire departments run 24hr shifts. It’s a choice.
minus-squareMisterFrog@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 年前Were you the one driving? This sounds so dangerous! My heart goes out to you
minus-square😈MedicPig🐷BabySaver😈@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 年前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.
minus-squareMisterFrog@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 年前Must be bliss working (still slightly long) 10 hour days now
minus-square😈MedicPig🐷BabySaver😈@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 年前Hours and very easy job is much better.
