I applaud Officer Thompson's generosity and determination. At the same time, foregoing sleep for an entire weekend is a dangerous practice that could endange public safety and Officer Thompson himself if he's on duty, or operating a vehicle, in a fatigue-impaired state.
Nice work Officer Thompon and congratulations. And, I hope you are able to find a reasonable balance that enables you get the sleep you need.

Note: Purely by chance, I've had a few recent posts on police and shiftwork-related issues. I've included links below for your convenience:
In addition, the Thorsby, Alabama, police department recently changed to 12-hour shifts. Looks like a bit of a trend to this observer.
