I don’t think you understand how it works. I’ve never worked 20 days straight
How many days do you work in a row on a turnaround? I don't know all the in's and out's, but I do have a family member who is an operator and he's constantly missing weekend visits, holidays, etc...

Turnaround where I work you have to have every 14th day off. So you basically work 13 and 1. Our turnarounds are short (about 4 weeks max) and we have 2 a year most of the time.
I definitely don’t enjoy working at the refineries, I actually just graduated from ULL with a different degree, but I’m using my Instrument Tech Degree to pay off my student loans. They pay too much not to take advantage of it.
But I do agree, plant work sucks and the atmosphere sucks, but the employees are well taken care of. I’m only working 4/10s right now.

I always claim I am working for family events I don't want to go to. It's an easy out.
I do think some people over-estimate how much some people work to hit 175k.
