MY DAY
Surface schedule
When I started my apprenticeship I was working on the surface. My shift was from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm. The shift went pretty fast compared with 12 hours.
But when I realized I had to work five days a week to get two days off I knew I didn't want that kind of schedule. That was another thing I didn't like about working the surface so I went underground.
