[Tango-L] Tanguera/o occupation?

[tony parkes]

and also in oztralia, i know a recently retired fire fighter ie well
over 60 years.

whilst on duty the shift cycle was two days on, two off then 4 days
off. highly regular in one sense, but still shift work because the
hours varied because the shifts rotated as did the many overtime
calllouts. so vince, you can add firefighters to your list of
irregular tangueros

cheers
