[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1950320, member: 42270"] Our two primary sorts (Day/Twilight) can both easily run anywhere from 6-9 hours depending on what day of the week it is. People working doubles through either shift can easily pull down a 13+ hour day. We also don't have required lunches or breaks in my state so more often than not this is straight through with maybe a 5 minute trip to the break room in-between. However, triples are absolutely not allowed. Local management started individually addressing employees working triples in my building last year and expressly forbid them from doing so after a jam breaker was working triples and got something like 90 hours in a week. Triples are forbidden in the NMA. That being said, I've done it a few times in a career and you're just not going to be worth much of a :censored: after you hit that 9-10 hour mark in the hub without a decent break. My worst day was in 2009/2010 and I did something like 16 hours straight, Day sort thru Midnight. I don't remember most of it. [/QUOTE]
