Yeah, and especially if travel is involved I agree it gets tricky. Then even for in town work, if it's seasonal you want to maximize the time you do get so at least 6 days a week is normal. 15/6 was the best I ever had out of town, and I did 24/4 for years. And travel costs I understand, but other than that I find the majority of resistance to changing that is usually "well that's how we did it for years, and it worked fine"
I still personally vouch for just splitting the shifts for in town work, like I laid out in the post you quoted. But for out of town work, I definitely don't have a answer for that. I would like if the Government lowered the max days you can work in a row, because 24/4 is brutal. Even just 21/5 was amazing in comparison
