Ive noticed for a while that rhp is pretty dead in the middle of the week especially Wednesday and Thursday nights. It seems like the forums are slow and number of people online is low. So guessing most of us are busy during the week, whether due to work, school or whatever. So the Monday to Friday grind for many must be different to the Monday to Friday grind that you are seeking OP! But to answer your question, as a single I would meet on a Sunday or midweek depending on circumstances (mind you that is not a routine occurrence). As a couple though, most likely a Saturday night.

I can count the number of guys I've met here who work regular Monday to Friday hours :( Most are shift workers or FIFO, and/or have kids every second weekend... My preference is to meet on Friday and Saturday nights but I've had to be creative lately with the diary...

week days. I prefer sex during the day, so love shift workers, also opens up beach/day meets. But then I haven't done the whole dating thing, I guess if going out at night, I would prefer Friday or Saturday night, somewhere busy. But I have found weekday meets aren't a problem, most likely due to the high percentage of shift workers

As a shift worker I have lost a few potential meets due to me being unavailable on weekends. ''How about this Saturday?"No can't sorry, working. ''How about next Saturday?"No, can't sorry, working. If it's Saturday you want I can in a month's time?''Oh this is all just too hard''. 5 weekends out of every 8 I am working, it puts a bit of a dampener on things.

I think the nature of my shifts actually makes meeting mid week or during daytimes easier, but working 4 on 5 off means there is no such thing as a weekend for me, they are all just days. - Posted from rhpmobile

I get'Well take a Saturday night off'OK will you take a Wednesday off, but then ask for a Thursday morning or the whole thursday off too because you'll probably be up until well after midnight and have to drive.'Oh no I can't do that'Yeah well neither can I... Weekends are my bread and butter. I'd love to have a free one every now and then, but it isn't always possible.

It's good to know I'm not the only shift worker here! I guess trying to match up 3 people's week for a night of fun is hard if it isn't a Saturday night!

Quoting 'I_touch_myself2' week days. I prefer sex during the day, so love shift workers, also opens up beach/day meets.

But I have found weekday meets aren't a problem, most likely due to the high percentage of shift workers Day meets are amazing fun! I use to do them a lot when I was younger and working casually. Not many couples are shift workers, myself and my partner are. It seems very hard to meet up with people (other than single males).

If they can freely meet on a Friday or Saturday night, it's a fair sign they are not attached. Most that are sneaking around do so during the weeknights as the other half wants to spend the weekend together.

Yes, there is truth in that. I suspected with a few, particularly one guy who liked morning meets 😉 mind you, I didn't half mind either 😇

I work 3 weeks on 1 off and live in Karratha. I suppose there is a bit of pub life, but not really my thing (sorry it is so expensive here I just dont think it is worth it to hand over all my pay to the pub) and not really a scene here... a dozen active couples and a few females in RHP that rarely if ever reply with a no thanks. Lol I prefer to get to know someone for a while online (obviously not from Karratha) then travel to them or they come here for my week off. Presently have a fwb from down south we catch up every other month on my week off. Really have a good time then! ITM2, you need a "Handy Man"?

I have never had a demand made to me, to met only on a Friday/Saturday night. Most ask me when I am free. I tell them my availability and it just goes from there. Ms Foxy

We feel this pain as well!! Mr is the shift worker, but add to that Mrs works Monday to Friday, then add young kids :s We are starting to consider we may have to give up on being able to play together as trying to find time that we are both off work AND can wrangle a babysitter is near impossible :(

I've got the double whammy. Been on my own for two and a half years now since the break down of my marriage. I thankfully get to see my kids every second weekend so that cuts weekends in half straight away. On top of that i'm an emergency services worker whose life is dictated by shift work. Its hard enough to get a reply on rhp but then when i'm hamstrung by circumstance, lets just say its very frustrating to get past the message stage as most people seem to have normal 9-5 jobs. I'm not complaining, that's my lot in life at the moment, just lending support to the topic for all of us who are dealing with the same issues and going through the same challenges. Wish i had a simple solution but as we all know, life has no simple solutions lol 😄😄 - Posted from rhpmobile

Even with that it seems very hard for me to meet a couple. But it is easier to work out a date with just two schedules!!

We are all just normal, regular people with the commitments of life on our shoulders. Most of us have work, some of us travel away with short notice, some shift workers, some FIFO. Kids, partners, close family, nosy neighbors lol, etc. It might take some effort, and some time, but that special someone for each of us is out there... somewhere.
