Night Shift Work

I love working night shift. I don't have to deal with most of the dumbass workers but I re-enrolled into school this semester so now my schedule is seriously screwed up. I've always had a problem with insomnia but it broke a few months ago and now if I don't sleep for 8 hours, I suck at life.

Here's my current schedule
3 Nights of 10pm to 6am
2 Days of 6am to 2:30pm
1 Day of 1:30pm to 10pm

With school mixed in during the week. I'm slowly beginning to rekindle my old love of energy drinks. I managed to quit smoking for a bit... and little by little I'm picking one up here and there, the intervals are getting closer together as well.

But during nights, it's friggin awesome because I dont have to do much so I do my homework, jam out to music, or play my psp =)

i actually love working nights...i've worked tons of overnights , but now i work a swing shift that gets out at 11pm...only 4 days a week..not bad..and yes , melatonin does help to fall asleep..i've always been a nocturnal person anyway..2pm is early for me

Yeah nights isnt too bad to be honest but it kinda sucks watching late shift leave work at 10pm and head straight to the pub

i work sunday-thursday nights 11PM-7:00AM

i like a lot about it...im completely unsupervised, i can take all the smoke breaks i want, i get to watch TV. its a good setup.

the downside though is my complete lack of a social life 5 days of the week. i dont know anyone who wants to hang out at 7 in the morning,

and it kind of negates the option of trying to date anyone that you can never see,

Heh, the not sleeping right sucks.
Not the being up all night.

I like it better at night, if I had a choice it would stay dark all the time.
