done most shifts 4 on 4 off, 4 on 3 off, 3 on 1 off etc, now working 7 on 7 off permie nights which is great every other weekend off, no management hassels. Bit knackered by night 7 but take a weeks holiday and get 3 weeks away, using staff travel loads now!

Like most on this thread, I have worked most of the usual patterns. I have to say that 2d2n4o is fine if not much happens on the nights. However IMHO 4d4o4n4o is far easier to cope with especially if the nights are 'full on'.

Well, at my place (base maintenance) we've all been complaining because the thought police have taken us off our beloved 4 days on 4 days off shift.......
and put us on a mon-fri 8hr dayshift.
OK, our pay may be crap, but having read the alternatives that you chaps suffer, maybe I won't complain too loudly.
