I do 12 hour nights. I get lots of sleep but it feels like it’s all I do now. My employer is a dumb azz that keeps filling with my schedule as well so it’s like one day on, one day off, 2 days on, one day off... ect.. it’s just too sporadic to build any routine or normalcy.

Also how do you date or meet new bishes? I can’t go for the coworkers and my 2 I got now won’t last much longer.

The money good but the ish so wack. Ion even be knowin what day it is half the time. I live like an animal now.

Lemme hear y’all night shift tales

At my gig my shift is from 10pm to 6am.. first 2 hours i work and then the last 6 hours I sleep... Got the rest of the day like I was never at work.. especially when my days off come up.. after I get off at 6 I have the rest of that day, and the next 2 days off.. I basically have 3 days off :mjgrin:

Just left a job I was at for almost 2.5 years working overnight doing supply chain/inventory at a hospital. 10p-6:30a

It was easy cause it was really only like 3 hours worth of work every night. Rest of the shift is either sleep or fukk around on YouTube/watch movies and tv. Only bad thing is I had to rotate weekends.

Took a job at another hospital because of my family (married with a son) the schedule 6a-2:30p no weekends but that’s the only good thing about it though.

If I could I’d go back to my old job I’d do it in a heartbeat. Waking up at 4:45 every morning ain’t whoa. Plus I had way more free time working nights. I could catch up on shyt.
Yeah I just started a state job that 6am-2:30. That 5:00 waking up shyt is trash but getting home at 3:15 everyday isn’t that bad.

8-4,9-5 is trash, that’s most of your day at that point

Bruhs in here talking about 8 hour shifts when OP said 12 hours. 12 hours is another level. That's a whole different ball game.

One hour at a time OP. Or one break at a time. I did 9pm to 9am for a few months. I was dead on my feet by about 6 or 7. I'm a night owl but not that damn much apparently. Went to work it's dark outside, leave work it's a whole new day, sun up, people walking around like nothing happened lol. shyt tweaked me. My brain, my body and my soul was just like nah

My advice try to get a day shift on them 12 hours. TRY. I'm doing 6am to 6pm now. The sun is coming up when I go to work and it's out when I leave work. I love it.

You night shift nikkas man. I dont know

Dem 12’s a mothafukca

I commute 50 minutes to work front and back so it turns into a 14 and then I leave an hour late to finish sometimes, turns to a 15

I made a thread about fukcing coworkers and y’all flamed and fried me. I don’t know what day it be, long commute, and be tired as a motha to even think bout meeting chicks. Also dem family gatherings and spur of the moment trips. MAn I gotta find a escape plan :damn:

Bro it be like that. Do your best to maintain as hard as it is and if they dont quit. That night shyt ain't right for you mentally. I use to check the fukk out 9pm to 9am a lot . I'm really not saying quit because you gotta get money but them 12 hours is wack ass fukk. Dont bend or stoop unless you have to. 12 hours long ass shyt. It's easier getting up at 4:45am. 4 days 12 hours bet lol. Work smarter, not harder. One hour at a time or one break at a time. Dont let them defeat you. 12 hours half a day da fukk. I'm with you. That's a long ass time

Never worked night shift, but I worked evening shift. I liked it for where I was at at the time. You can get so much done when you have the morning to hit up places or call businesses that are 8-5. If you have kids mornings are easy.

What sucks is you miss out on all the prime time evening entertainment that people are always chirping about

What jobs y'all had to where you could get high and bullshyt the entire shift? I had to make sure the paper was done by 5 AM not including revisions to the final edition. There was no such thing as a break.
