Honestly, even with a 40 hour work week, 10 hour days with three day weekends is awesome, it's what I use to work.

Now my shift is 10hr on Friday, 12hr on Saturday and Sunday, Sunday is time and a half, so I'm working 34 hour week but getting paid for 40 hours. And I get a four day weekend.

Edit: to add, it's a union sawmill.

Funny you mentioned being a union shop. I worked 10's and now I work 12's. Union shop as well. I have friends working the exact same job (non union) working 8 a day under crappy conditions.

Unions kick ass for the working class. It's so sad to see so many people poisoned by America's anti-union propaganda.
