Ok. So look at the month of october. My shifts are the red and the green. Black and purple is the other crew that makes up my unit. There is 3 or 4 people in a crew atm. Because some crew are shorthanded. 4 is the ideal number per crew. 2 people for each side of my work area. The red dates are my day shifts. The green dates are my night shifts. And then i work over time which would carry over into another day shift after my day shifts. Or it would carry into a night shift. There are two complete crews. Four in all. A crew. B crew. C crew. D crew. A and b crew make up one complete unit. So my crew, a crew. Would work days. And b crew would work that night shift. So We have whats called mandatory coverage. So if someone from C crew calls out or something. Its mandatory that someone from my crew covers that shift. I would never cover b or d crew cause then id end up working 24 hrs straigbt. Does that make sense? Its kind of wierd how its formulated but it works nicely.
I end up getting ot whenever i want rly. Cause someone is always out or short handed for some reason in c crew.
