Ability to handle a fast paced environment and work a rotating shift (We provide a ”Family oriented” work schedule: SEE BELOW)
Spare weeks (Tues - Fri, 8-hour days) Training weeks (Mon - Fri, 8-hour days) Shift days are highly variable in terms of how busy they are. Lieu Days If a scheduled day off lands on a holiday you get another day off (lieu day) whenever you want. Depending on the shift rotation, you can end up with quite a few of these extra days off. Most everyone takes vacation during the four-day spare week that lands after the normally-scheduled 8-day off - for a total 14 days off. Since you have fifteen days off every year (some lieu days), a system operator can potentially have **four** 2-week vacation periods. I can't think of other job that pays this well and allows this much flexibility.
