What is he leaning towards. I say let him pick b/c the last thing you want is him being miserable about his hours b/c you wont even want to be around him when he is home. Chat Icon



That's a really good suggestion. I know during the last picks, my DH asked my opinion --- do I want him to do mids or do I want him to have bad days off.

I told him that while I hate being alone during the week nights, I'd rather have him there on the weekends.

But, that said, I told him he needed to do what he wanted. I think he'll end up going back to daylights cause the mids are killing him. But its hard to not get the good days off.

And re: danger --- sometimes the mids are less dangerous because there are less people around...not sure what area he is working but thats how it is for my DH. When it's dangerous, it's DANGEROUS. But when it's a light night with not a lot of people, it's less of an issue.

I'm all for steady days off but if he is sleeping half of Sunday you aren't getting any benefit from that. The only thing with 11-7 tho is that he'll basically wake up, hang around, go to work and then get home, eat and go to bed. At least with working off hours, you get some daylights....

if he has to often work weekends anyway, you might as well have the weeknights together. By the time he gets home, you can have dinner waiting and sit and relax together.

definitely #2 - this is what my dh does and its great - i get home somedays at 6:15 and we get to eat lunch together and we are able to go to bed together at the same time every night

plus sun/mon off are great - i am not a fan of their rotating schedules!

Option 3, even if he had to work weekends you could still do somethings together after work and he would only be getting home about an hour and half after you.
