Working swing shifts at the airport?
Seth asked:
To all who work all hours at the airport: I applied for a Aircraft Fueler position. Basically the position involves refuiling the planes and making sure the equipment and the work area is clean.
All my jobs thus far have been cubicle positions, which I have hated. I want to do this job because it pays decent, and because I don’t like jobs, especially cubicle positions, where people gossip and are downright rude to each other.
The question is are there certain things that I am overlooking in this airport position, besides the late hours etc?

Every job has it’s gossips and company politics with which to deal. My only advice to you is to keep an open mind. Does this position at the airport offer benefits? Are the working hours likely to change with little notice? How often will you have to work different shifts? Do you have a family that would be affected if you chose to work nights?
Make sure you put a lot of thought into why you want this position. Sometimes we leave a certain place because we want to avoid certain things, only to find out that the new place isn’t much different after all.
