So today he got a paycheck and it turns out it was a system wide change. His paycheck says "big dummy" right under his name. Needless to say the whole dealership is making fun of him today and now he has to go to a bank and cash that! hahahaha!!

Just be happy to have a consistant shift. I can be 245am one day and 3pm the next... the only rule is they have to give me 10hrs from the end of one duty day before the next one starts. (Well not the ONLY rule but that's the main one)

Ha! At least they have a rule like that... My last job would work me from 6pm to 5am and then have me come back for a 10am to 9pm shift.. I know it's most likely illegal to do that but holly shit was it horrible having to work it..

probably not illegal in itself but may have shorted you on what technically should have been OT (which would be illegal). Either way thats pretty shitty

I got overtime for working 12 hours. but didnt get DT for working within the 24hour period. They counted it as 2 separate shifts.

Hope you are well compensated for working swing shifts!

I complain and whine about how much I make and not compensated enough for the work I do but in reality, at least to the below site, I'm rich!

Non standard jobs have non standard requirements. Same with your weird shifts.
My job can easily hit 14 hours a day (I know, I know "you work?") but I take the good with the bad. As nice as it would be to punch a clock at set hours I prefer the variation and the good things that come with it.
