Working Overnight shift ain't for the Weak

[KBtheKey]

Not hard when you know enough people who also don't sleep regular hours. Hard part is knowing when to shut it down so you can get enough rest to participate properly the next night

let's see him talk his way outta this

I’m a millionaire, all shifts are broke boys , I’m just messing. Nothing wrong with that. Important thing is we all have a job

Did it a couple of times in my early 20s. Never again.

Swing shift was wild. I did it at a factory in the summers while in college. Going from 8-4 to midnight-8am in two weeks was sum shyt i never got used to.

This damn near killed me. 6-2pm and 10-6am alternate weeks

I once had a job working from 4pm to 1am and that was still hard. Seeing the day workers going home and me coming in to work used to make me depressed. Job wasn’t very good either

I think Overnight is worse for people who are Early Birds. Thats me, I love waking up at 5am or 6am without an alarm. Overnight was a killer for me

I worked in a call center and had to work till 1am. Get home about 1:30. Probably don't go to bed until 3am then be back up at 7am at the latest and trying to take a nap before I go back

I tried that shyt a couple jobs in my life, could not last in either job . 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 "


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


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

I disagree. Can be the best shyt. Depends on what you do.

My homie has been doing it for over 21 years at UPS. He's like "nine more years till I can retire."

He's also single with a condo so more power to him

Broke nikka lifestyle.

so nurses that work overnight are broke?

Doorman who work overnight at luxury buildings are broke?


I work overnight on the weekends and have a full time career at a global company during the day.


I actually love working overnight but then again all my overnight experience is in hospitality which is probably why I like it.

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.

Magnesium supplement.

Only broke boys have to work that overnight skeleton shift

My friend whose a nurse and works overnight most likely makes more money than you.
