To ask what you think this man's relationship status might be?

[Sippingonginandjuice]

He constantly works. We work somewhere where it is possible to work very long hours. He works lots of days in a row, often fortwelve hour shifts.
Sometimes I can see a pattern that he works the shifts when you get antisocial hour pay. Sometimes it just seems like he signs himself up for the least popular. He works every weekend often Friday late shift, Sunday early.
I'm just wondering if there is a gf or bf or spouse whether they would be happy about this or whether it suggests he's not in a relationship... what other explanations could there be? Saving up for something? Debt? Nothing to do during pandemic so might as well earn the money?
Answers on a postcard please!

Would it be better if he was a lazy bum collecting a benefit every week instead so you could say your taxes keep him in smokes and beers?

The guys damned if he does and damned if he doesnt.. How about you let people crack on with their lives instead of 2nd guessing his lifestyle choices. Perhaps they are both shift workers so it suits them..

Some very strange people on here tonight

I would assume young children and working shifts to minimise childcare.

Just have a nosy on social media if you are that interested.

Stalker? I'd assume childcare issues though, why does it concern you?

My dad used to work all the overtime he could get so we could have holidays. My parents are those people that live for holidays, but it was a stretch on usual wages for them. When they retired they sold the house and went away 3 or 4 times a year until COVID, which is a lot by their class/area standards.

Some people put the hours in so they can really enjoy any downtime. Personally I prefer more of an ongoing balance these days, but when I was younger with no ties I'd do the antisocial overtime for the £££.

For example I have worked with many a dr over the years who is in their senior years, grown up kids, wife/ husband etc. Then they work until 10 at night doing private work and I think what is it all for? Surely it gets to a point where you have enough money and it's time to enjoy your life.

In my experience doctors do this to:

• send their kids to private school
• send their kids to university, all expenses paid
• give their kids a nice chunk of a house deposit

...I kinda wish one of them would adopt me, even though I'm in my 30s . Plus they want to retire comfortably and go on nice holidays, buy nice cars etc.

My guess is he's got kids at home 🤣🤣

Why do you want to know?

I’d assume married with kids.

@Zebraaa

Stalker alert!

Yep!

No one casually has this level of ‘innocent curiosity’ about someone else’s work schedule and private life.

Four twelve hour shifts doesn’t seem that excessive or abnormal.
