Obviously you and Richard Kranium are in the same boat and don't work shiftwork and have no real appreciation of it.
I agree with his sentiment of slowing down and kicking back for a day, unfortunately for those who actually bring in money for their employers in the Aviation industry Sunday( or any weekend) is probably not a day of rest and reflection.
We don't get POETS day (Piss Off Early Tomorrows Saturday) and Sunday is maybe an early start so no playing up on Saturday night. If you don't do shiftwork you've got no idea how it impacts on your family life.
There are pluses and minuses with shiftwork but if you haven't worked it you've got no idea.
Enjoy your weekend.
