SpaceX is staffing 4 production shifts for 24/7 Starship construction operations.
SpaceX has filed with the FCC for a sub-orbital 20-kilometer launch in the March 16-September-16 timeframe.
This is mainly for staffing up 4 production shifts for 24/7 operations, but engineers, supervisors & support personnel are certainly needed too. A super hardcore work ethic, talent for building things, common sense & trustworthiness are required, the rest we can train.

4 shifts working 24/7 are usually on an 8 day week with 2 day shifts and 2 night shifts. Shifts 1 and 2 will work 12 hours a day for 4 days and then are off for 4 days while shifts 3 and 4 take over…repeat. I did this for a few years and it was kinda sweet.
It takes 5 people to cover 24/7 position.
Overlapping shifts so that the work doesn’t stop at shift change.
Also, if you’re expecting people to work 7 days a week, you have to reduce their hours a little. Otherwise they get run down and start making stupid mistakes.
Does anyone really want to work in the early hours if they don’t have to? What about if you have three project sites in the US, Europe, and say Australia?
Don’t understand the 4 shifts since there are only 3 x 8 hrs in a day unless the extra shift is to cover the week end.
You’d need to find a mill rolling sheet that wide, first.
All in time, I wouldn’t be surprised to see that happen a bit down the road.
Im surprised elon isnt working on an extra wide steel roller so he can weld the hall all from on piece of steal…. or die cast it like a giant matchbox car
