Hard to run a business when you’re wasting half your off days commuting and most overnights are 12 hours or less. Most schedules are 4 on, 3 off, so you’ll be lucky to have one full day off at home. Over integration (the first and last few days of the month) when schedules overlap you’ll likely end up working six days in a row with one day off with relative frequency.
