My shift, which runs eight days, is Wednesday through Wednesday. My days
off are Thursday through Tuesday, every other week. It seems strange, but I
like this shift - so far. The work week sails by quickly, and the weekends
are plenty long for R&R. Since I'd rather spend my weekends on the island,
rather than in Key West, I'll need to learn how to get supplies, and tanks
filled, and still be on the island. It can be done, but the tanks are the
biggest problem right now. We have a compressor on the island, but... long
story.
