Look, 12’s are what they are, you make the most out of a work day, but that’s all you do is work and sleep on those days. 8’s are lovely and wonderful, but you’ll never make much $ and if you drive a good distance it’s a killer too. It depends on how far you drive for those 8’s and if you need a lot of OT. Working 6 days sucks for 48 hours, working 6 days for 72 hours adds up financially. I’ve done both 5-6 dif times over the last 25 years. If you have kids that play sports, take the 8’s, you won’t miss a game, but if you’re young and don’t have kids 12 hours are where it’s at. Me personally, I don’t mind working weekends when all the bosses are home either.
