That's very much an individual thing.
My uncles said in vet school they stayed awake as long as possible each hour doing a series of cognitive tests. This way each person knew where their breaking point was.

Totally agree. I don’t have the answer. We need a much stronger contract that has stronger language about weekends and excess overtime. Without giving up our pensions or healthcare. Seems bleak.

Well 7 is probably sufficient.
I often "forget" to shave after a long nights work. Extra ten minutes is awesome.

I know guys who can drink 15 beers and seem totally sober too. Doesn’t mean they should drive home.

They will probably ask for year round helpers.
You can run yourself short all of the time, it catches up to you. Get back to me in a decade!
Your get beat up mentally and physically here after the decades roll by.

We should hold all of the power this contract.
The shipping industry is as big as ever and growing. They can't get the extra workers they need to staff the operation. Let alone replace us all. Management gives less
s than us. You think they are gonna go above and beyond to pick up the slack?They are going to try to pull some bull crap. No doubt.

No doubt. Like I said it's really an individual thing.
Are most 20 somethings ok running 70 hours. Probably. Should 20+ year guys be doing it. Probably not.

And Hoffa will offer everyone a free bottle of lube to pass it.
I see a signing bonus this contract, do the part timers push through.

I ran a 5 ton milling machine that would cut you hand off in a split second for 12 hours a day/ 6 days a week for 2 months when I was young---and lived to tell about it. Normal schedule was 10 hour days/ 6 days a week. You guys are all pusillanimous- now days. (jk)(not about the milling machine though)

I have serious doubts, that most of the part timers, in my building would even be able to return a ballot. Some seem lucky to have pants on.

Gonna be real interesting. I see no way it's settled by August
For a $1000 bonus they would.
