Re: What was your schedule like for build season?

M,T,W,Th 7 pm - 10 pm

Friday we all take off except week 6

Saturday 10 am - 7 pm we have brunch from 9 am to 10 am, and late lunch at 2:30 and then the adults have dinner at 8 pm at the Italian restaurant with a nice bottle of wine

Sunday 10 am - 5 pm brunch is from 9 am - 10 am, lunch at 2:30

The last four days of build we were there every night until at least 2 am and then we would split shift the kids and adults, starting at 9 am until planned midnight each night. We bagged at 11:59 pm. Somehow, I still didn't get home until 2 am that night anyway.

In terms of food. We have a fridge, griddle, grill, microwave, coffee pot, rice cooker, veggie steamer, and toaster. There is always breakfast on Sat/Sun (and during president's weekend), which gets my kids here a bit earlier. We always have a fully stocked pantry of stuff sponsored by my retirement fund (and kids/parents, of course). Lunch is provided by kids for the entire team. We always eat together on the weekends at one long table. Our union break is a half hour.
