You asked for thoughts and here are mine. I worked a good paying job , 3-11 from 86 to 98 before they changed us to 11-7 and 2yrs later finally got to days. 3-11 is for people that do not have families or kids. That 12 years was when my kids were in school, no single day vacation, had to plan what vacation I had so I could get to some of 3 kids activities. I liked working 2nd, but if you got family, it sucks!! 11-7, if you can sleep in the daytime, it is alright. I couldn't. I'd be so tired I could barely make it home and pull into the driveway and be wide awake. If I went in and tried to go to bed, I would lay there with my eyes closed but the rest of me awake thinking of all that I had to do outside, then get up and go out till I knew I had to get some sleep. If lucky, I could get to sleep by 2 or 3 pm, but usually was more like 4-5pm and then get up at 9- 9:30 to see family and eat. ALWAYS tired, Couldn't adjust from days to nights for weekend and then go back to nights thru the week. BUT I did get to go to all of the last 2 kids games for the last couple of years in HS. No doubt in my mind, if the pay is anywhere close, I'd be on days. Hope you can make the right decision for you, I'm sure you will get lots of input on this. Chris

The nuts and bolts of nuts and bolts is an interesting and essential piece of knowledge that applies to our older tractors. An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let�s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
