Continental variation

12 hour shifts - 2 - 2 - 3,

start days Mon x 2, OFF Wed x 2 nights Fri x 3

off Mon x 2 days Wed x 2 OFF Fri x 3

nights Mon x 2 off Wed x 2 days Fri x 3

off Mon x 2 nights Wed x 2 off Fri x 3

= 168 hrs every 28 = 42hr week - can adjusted with leave to
achieve nominal 37.5 or whatever

Gives 1 short (am Fri to am Mon) & 1 LONG (pm Thurs to pm Mon)
w/end per 28 days

Depending on location/work rate the 3 DAY w/end can be FUN as can
the 3 NIGHTS
