Night Shifts

[Blysster]

Does anyone else on here work night shifts?

My job requires me to be here "in case" something happens so I have nothing to do for hours at a time. What do you guys do to stay awake all night??

I think I'm almost all the way insane :huh

I work the 11pm until 7am shift all alone at a call center. I'm on the 7th floor of an old old building very close to the lake superior shore. Nice view when the sun comes up. There's a big tv with cable here and of course the internet. Also a vcr and a dvd player, so I'm able to do something to keep myself from getting bored. I like to turn most of the lights off and read some stephen king, oooooo spooky. The phone hardly ever rings at night, I mean 3 calls is a busy night. My "friday" at work is saturday night. I've really turned into a night owl over the past few years since I started working this shift. I do everything at night it seems. I ride wheelers on my nights off, sometimes all night and into the next day. Someday I think it would be nice to return to the land of the daywalkers though. But you know, one year turns to two and so on and so on.

you could do like the movie Night Shift and turn it into a Brothel.

I am the only one here when I work night shifts as well (other than the stoned security guy that walks around once in a while) but we don't have a TV here. I think I might invest in a sound card and a portable DVD ROM. On last night's 12 hour shift, I only had 7 calls of 2-3 minutes each.

The good thing is that I only have to work the graveyard shift one week per month so it's not too bad.. I don't know how you could do it all the time.. maybe you would get use to it after a while? switching back and forth between day shifts and nights shifts really messes me up.

Alright that's enough complaining from me for tonight :blah:

Ahh, I remember working midnights at the mill. It wasn't too bad for awhile...but then I started to feel like a zombie!:( I pulled straight midnights for a year one time:eek: although it was a lot better than working afternoon shift.

That's cool that you have a midnight job that is pretty laid back....in the mill that doesn't exist.:o
