My day was ok Matt.
I was going to go get some of my stuff, but carboard boxes and an open truck in the rain don't mix.
So I went and helped my friends sister spruce up her cottage for rental.

72 hours a week is not too outlandish, and at least your days are free so you can do things in the real world.
I start to feel isolated when I go to work in the dark and come home in the dark. At least the sun is shining when you're not in the hole.

I'm an Inspector at a Nuclear Power Plant. Usually we only work hours like that when the plant is refueling. That only lasts about 30 days now.

It's ok. I'm kinda diverse, mechanical, electrical, welding, coatings, radwaste shipments, fire stops & Seals, Liquid Penetrant exam, Magnetic Particle exams, and code visual exams (VT1-3). Been doing this for 33 years or more. It pays the bills and provides play money.
