/adv/, I move to a different city to start work in a couple of weeks and just got my rota. I'm looking at it and wondering how I'm going to meet someone and start a serious relationship with my hours
55 hours a week is the standard week, but roughly once a month I have to work 12 days straight, covering 132 hours
Every now and again they have to throw me a few days off by law
On top of that, I'd put a 50% chance of me moving again in two years time
Has anyone got any past experience to share?
wait 2 years. LDRs that start in meatspace don't last, and finding a partner who's going to quit their job to follow you is going to be nigh impossible. You're just gonna have your heart broken.

Yeah, I'd certainly put waiting on top of a LDR
The complicated thing about finding someone who will follow me is that it's not certain, and actually my wage alone would be over twice the average by then... But I guess money isn't everything

i think the issue here is you are 'looking' for a serious relationship with a girl you havent even met yet.
the chances are you wont be able to meet anyone. but why not just put yourself out there by going out and doing things you enjoy on your nights and days off, and just seeing what the world brings to you. if you can meet a girl and you want to take her on dates, do it.
stop worrying about whether or not this imaginary girl will last the two years.
