Hi guys,
can anybody give any info on what a typical shift pattern for a guard is?
If anybody can give TPE's shift pattern in particular I would be most grateful!

Thanks
Rob

Depends on the Depot, Depots like York/Man Picc have weeks of earlies, lates and nights whilst others have earlies and lates only.

Most jobs are 6 to 9.5 hours in length(max is 10.5 I think)the number of rest days depends on your link(I know Graycam's used to have a nice 7 days off once).
