Re: Work 'til you drop....!
My job is both physically and mentally knackering including shifts where I can be working days and nights in the same week. I will be going at 55 whether they like it or not, otherwise I will go on long term sick and they can move me to a desk job.
Chav is right about shift work shortening your life. A study in the US showed that people who work shifts can expect to die 5 years sooner than those who don't. Then again, they are the last 5 years when you've lost control of your bladder, can't remember your name and wish you were dead anyway....
