Is this possible? Math issue...?

My job is required by a union to give every full time employee 40 hours a week...we are also only scheduled for 8 hour shifts which means 5 days a week and 2 days off...each work week runs Saturday to Friday with a two week pay period...my question is is it possible to work 12 days in a row in a two week period without going over 40 hours in one week?

Update:

Awesome, thanks guys! I was pretty certain on my math, but other workers were arguing the opposite and I just wanted to confirm...

    Nope...no matter how you work it, 12 days would 96 hours...since you have to work 40, the best you can do is the last 5 days of a week (Monday - Friday) and then the first 5 days of the next week for your 10 days and 80 hours.

    No of course it's not possible. Basic math.
