Fire dept job. 24 hours on duty, 48 hours off.
Then we get to work our 2nd job so that we can make a decent living. :haha:
Take one day off and get 5 off in a row.

Now my take home from my pension is almost as much as my take home from my salary. I still work part time. Irregular hours.

My expression in that it was a Friday, and not so much the religious aspect of the text,:03:

A popular second job with UK Firefighters is working for undertakers.
