8 - Primary Industry

My set daily schedule can vary because we work in a plant environment that operates, 24 hours a day year-round. The plant is only planned to shut down once every two years for major maintenance. Everything else - the majority of the maintenance - can be done while we're in production.

I like to spend a lot of time with operators because that gives me a better feel for the actual operations. I still generally work 40 hours a week but, as required, I can work overtime that can be banked for future use to add a few extra days for holidays.
