Default Longest time in bed?

Sleeping that is.

I've just finished a stretch of 6, twelve and a half hour night shifts at work. They have to be, without doubt the worst shifts I've ever worked.

I am exhausted. Physically, mentally and emotionally.

I have two weeks off now, and I just don't see myself getting out of bed for the forseeable future.

What's the longest you've been in bed for?

I presume you're talking about "in bed, asleep"? Not recouperating following major bowel surgery for instance?

Bit worried about which NHS Trust permits a 75 hour week.
Clearly illegal under WTD.

"you must be hungry or thirsty by now" and when enquired why and thought it was only saturday night i was told its sunday night!!!

Woohoo, i love sleep, me zzzzzzzzzzzz

Technically,6 shifts over two weeks.

Back end of week one, and top end of week two.
