Overnight peoples (aka. Who's up?)

Adeptus_Minor · 11-13-2008, 03:22 AM

Ok, fine, I'll start it.
I'm almost always up overnight.
Damn 3rd shift no-life-having job. :P

Sticky this thread por favor.

and minor; did you buy your damn shootin iron yet?

Adeptus_Minor · 11-13-2008, 03:25 AM

to answer Paco, nope.. haven't bought the pistola yet.
I ended up picking up another rifle off my antique battle rifles collection list.
That blew my budget for another check or so.

Sweet, another third shift fucker here.

Adeptus_Minor · 11-13-2008, 03:28 AM

Where've you been, bud? I've been working nights for almost 2 years now (and rotated nights & days before that)

Must have missed that. I'm only 6 months into the third shift shit, though it's my third job that's got me on these hours.

You'll either learn to love it or hate it.
I do both, depending on what we're talking about.
It's nice not having to deal with high call volume and day shift politics, but it has totally destroyed any semblance of a social life that I might have had.
Ask Zoomie... they almost never see me anymore.

My job has made new shifts. Now I'm working 9p-5a. It's a weird shift but I like it better than the shift I was working (11:30p-8a). Now I can get home before daylight & be asleep before the sun rises. Plus it gives me a chance to take a nap before going riding after work.

It fucking blows. At first it seemed cool, then alright, now it just fucking sucks. Even though its the same amount of time it just fucks with your mind. I meen get off at 7. Go to sleep. And go back in at 10 that night, I'm like WTF i was just at work this morning. I hate my job.

Adeptus_Minor · 11-13-2008, 03:51 AM

That's one way to look at it, yeah.
11pm-7am here... 30-45 minutes commute at night, 45-1hr+ commute in the morning.
That's the worst part, I think.
