I got a day job.......
After 13 years working shift work, I landed a day job. Instead of working in the field around 20,000 horsepower turbine driven compressors, I will work in the lab and check out the final product. I will make sure that the sulfuric acid is really acid. I will check that the oleum (WTF is that?) is oleum, and the ammonia and CO2 are 100 percent pure. 7am -3pm. I have seen enough fires, explosions, pipes bursting, and other mayhem to satisfy me for the rest of my life. I might even make it to the bash now, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Be safe around that stuff , I had to make new carbon bushings for a pump on an oleum barge a while ago and was told IF I breathed the vapors it would collapse my lungs. Of course I had on a respirator and did not question what the gentleman had told me after seeing the haze of smoke come out after we pulled the pump out.

Congrats Jeff, your body will thank you! I also finally got a rotation on days in the training department. Now I'm seeing what all shows I can attend

You'll love those hours for sure.
About 3 years ago I was offered a M-F 6am-2:30pm job.
I hope the 12hr rotation job never reappears
