    When they all got together to decide what kind of civilization to have, all the slackers slept in. That’s why we have to work before noon.

        google coal mining swing shifts. Fucking ridiculous! 2 day shifts, 1 off, 2 night, 1 off, 3 day, 1 off, 3 night, 4 off, repeat.

            Bottom of the wrung entry level coal truck drivers start at like $30/hr so I don’t feel too bad for them. A buddy of mine is an electrician at a mine and makes 50/hr days and i think nights are automatic overtime. He plans to retire at 40.
