I tried that shyt a couple jobs in my life, could not last in either job :dead::deadrose:. It takes a special kind of fortitude to be up at graveyard hours, be alert, be coherent, and functional

Not just that, its a mental thing. You are working while majority are asleep. You're days off are a battle between sleeping normal hours and being like "fukk it, imma be awake overnight during my off days :manny:"


Even trying to gameplan on when I would go to sleep before or after the shift used to have me stressed out :heh:


Any breh that works overnight shift, I gotta salute ya'll :salute:

I’ll say this. If u can avoid it, u should. Did it for a number of years. Now I can’t sleep without the aid of pills. Benedryl, advil pm. Xanax is great for this but u can’t take it nightly. In fact, u shouldn’t be taking the others nightly either but one can only toss and turn for so long before saying fucck it. And no, melatonin doesn’t work for me.

Man working overnight shifts is probably top 5 worst thing in life :russ:

I worked overnight cleaning airplanes...a nikka lasted 3 days :dead: back was hurting from ducking down to clean the seats. shyt was awful

Had a tech job working in a NOC overnight which was a little more manageable since i wasnt doing labor..but the sleep schedule :mjcry: I had to get dark curtains just so i can sleep during the day. i always felt drained :francis: terrible i left that job quick.

Humans were not meant to work overnight brehs
