That is some rough hours
I have worked those hours a few times in my life
You just really need to make sure you get some sleep during the day. The hardest part is getting uninterrrupted sleep. Black out the windows, get a noise conditioner, do not disturb sign and try your best to set your sleep hours. Good luck

Ive only worked a few GY shifts to cover someone but i found that drinking a few enegry drinks like rockstar or wired worked better than coffee, its got some other stuff in it that I think helps

The things we do for earnin that paper, good luck man

Ya Robert it's hard to get used to working nights. I now work shift hrs. I get to work 4 nights--6pm to 6am, then I get 3 off, come back on 3 days, get 1 off, back for 3 nights, 3 off then back for 4 days. But then I get 1 week off. It was real hard at first. Having a week off every month is worth it plus all the overtime adds up nicely. It's not easy to sleep during the day. Like geonagual said, make sure to black out your windows and the do not distrub sign is a neccessity. Also I found it helpful to notify all friends and relatives of my hrs so they were not calling and waking me up all the time. You'll get used to it after awhile. Good luck with your job!! :dance: :stoned:

My cousin has night shifts like that, and hes a stoner as well (oh wait, u gave up tokin... well, yea anyway) and he ussaly gets home at like 6am then he just chills until like lunch time and then he goes to sleep and wakes up at about 8pmish...

after a while you won't have a problem. When I started working overnight I hardly slept the first few days. You're body gets so tired from lack of sleep and smoking so many blunts that passing out at any given time is easy. Also my room is pitch black during the day if I want it to be, and that definitely helps.

It just takes a while for your body/mind to get used to it.

I think it depends on what you do.I work nights as a paramedic in the city and love it.would not work any other shift.Its a different world out there on nights.Studies show that we night shift workers have a shorter life span and that it is not natural for the human body to sleep during the day instead of night but iwe have to die of something.
