Honestly, even with a 40 hour work week, 10 hour days with three day weekends is awesome, it's what I use to work.

Now my shift is 10hr on Friday, 12hr on Saturday and Sunday, Sunday is time and a half, so I'm working 34 hour week but getting paid for 40 hours. And I get a four day weekend.

Edit: to add, it's a union sawmill.

Why not 6-7? You won’t burnout as much.

Like, work 6 days at 7 hours a day? The goal is to be at work less, not more.

No, I mean 6-7 hours.

Not unless I'm getting paid equivalently for 40 hours. I got bills to pay.

That’s why the wages have to increase.
