That's gotta be pretty rough on the body. Now how does that work, do the drillers work in shifts? Why is it that only YOU don't get sleep? And isn't there some sort of rule that you have to get sleep after a certain number of hours? Cuz after a while you just can't function without sleep. For me it's capped at about 12 hrs, after that I can't focus well.
Yeah. Drillers have shifts. The drilling sup has shifts, crews have shifts, the core hands had shifts. Everyone had shifts except for me. And the hole took forever and everyone likes holes that take forever and had a nice rest... everyone but me, because we were coring continuously.
I thought I'd hit the wall yesterday morning but then I found my twentieth wind and was good for the day...
But I got a shower and some sleep last night and felt like a human being again.
So you miss a few zzz's but then don't you have days and days off? Wonder how you'd fare in post production.
ReplyDeleteSo turns out it got worse than that.
ReplyDeleteI didn't have more than one continuous hour of sleep for about two and a half days until earlier this evening.
Then I finally got to shower and sleep for awhile. I feel almost human again.
The last few days have been nuts.
