Working Overnight shift ain't for the Weak

[Scaaar]

It's not hard at all if you are willing to live in your own universe.

It works best if you are single

I do it over the weekends now and it's not bad at all. My body has adjusted. But I'm not out trying to kick it on the weekends anymore either so it doesn't bother me. You're right that it comes down to how you're living. If you're trying to still have fun and be out most hate it because they feel like they're missing out on stuff.

One thing I have noticed with 3rd shift, is that it’s the easiest shift to get promoted on

Over the years of working different jobs, I’ve seen ppl turn down promotions left and right because they would have to go to third shift.

Do you like it? Yes, I prefer it over a standard 8-5 in an office.

How many days a week do you work? 2 on 2 off, every other weekend off.


Is it better than working a set schedule to you? Yes. Less day to commute; feels less like rat race

Nightowl so i loved night shift. Was easy as fukk and chill most nights.

 

[Cowboyz89]

Only had to do it for a month.

It was one of the worst experiences of my life.
Ive never been so miserable.
Bored and hazy at night, lethargic and confused during the day.

You either love it or hate it depending on the job. When working nights I loved how dead and quiet it would get. I’m a night owl anyways so it never bothered me too much.

plus we teleworked once covid hit

sleeping pill to get me to sleep.. coffee to wake me up.. weed to balance me out and nicotine cause fukk it.

those pills are bad for you

all I did was smoke weed to sleep when I worked nights

everyone I knew was on pills and all other types of shyt and still wrecked people would be zapped of energy asking me how i'm functioning. I just smoked weed and had a coffee at work.

Yeah overnight is crazy, can't do it. But working until about 5-1am was perfect for me. Never no alarms to wake up to, job was easy as hell. No issues
