    Those days off seem to be my only resistance, apart from relocating, to getting on with them or any other company really. Another recreational activity I was doing for a number of years only takes place on Thursday or Friday nights. Current job has me at least able to hit it some of the time.


    But, now I'm guessing I'll just have to take the hit and deal with the separation anxiety. Use my Canon R50 on some other photography medium on my off-days. Pictures of bicycle group rides vs. abandoned furniture:) :)

    My schedule is Sunday PM through Thursday PM, off Friday and Saturday, and I hired in with 0 fuel hauling experience prior. I’m supposed to be 1700-0500 but between me and my daytime driver we usually run an hour or 2 earlier (company doesn’t care). So the opportunities can be found. But yes from what I understand Gemini and Pilot will have you working weekends to start, I believe Eagle is the same

    Don’t forget you will probably work just about every holiday too especially as the new guy . While your family and friends are off on weekends having fun and enjoying the holidays you’ll be working . Depends what you want in life i guess . i prefer mon-friday and about 10-11 hrs a day instead of the 12-14 hr crap .
