Any other Overnight workers in here?

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

For the graveyard shift brehs go on amazon and get a gel cold sleep eye mask. I put that bytch in the freezer then when i get home around 7:30 i put it on close the windows turn on the a.c so i dont hear construction and im out cold



Oh and as far as fukk up eating habits i had to change up to intermittent fasting to lose the weight i gained trying to adjust to night shift eating. So my last meal is about 10 and i fast 16 hrs 11pm-3pm

Bout to cop right now!

I love Amazon

nah, the worst is having only one day off.

you get off on that day, go to sleep, wake up and the day is over with.

This right here used to piss me the fukk off to no end. It was the pinnacle of disrespect. Main upside to nights was that your mornings and days were always free to do whatever: doctors appointments, job interviews, grocery store, movies etc...

I work overnights, shyt is straight. I basically do whatever I want for most of the shift. I can bring my laptop in and play emulated ps2 games all night, watch netflix, read, whatever. I spend most of the night drawing or doing digital art though, trying to perfect my craft so I can move onto something better.

How do u fit in your gym schedule with nightshift. I work 11pm-7am aswell, its a struggle fitting in the gym

24/7 gym, when i was on nights I'd leave work at 5am and get to the gym just in time to avoid the rush.

Off this weekend on both.
I am ecstatic.

I hope my 48 hrs feel like 48 months out this bytch

Another thing with overnight, working with dead energy>>>>>fresh off an off day
I don't know why, and I can't explain it, but it seems like you grind harder with
dead energy(i.e. 2 to 3 hrs of sleep).

My shift at day time gig is 1pm to 9pm( Tues, Wed, Fri, and every other Sat)
Overnight 11pm to 7am(Everyday, with the exception of maybe one off day)

This is the truth after a certain amount of time with no sleep you get a second wind

My main job is a night auditor in a hotel. My 2ND job always changes, currently I'm a janitor for a pharmaceutical company. Before this, I gave valet a try and quit after 1 day. Before that, I was a debt collector for Merrick bank.

Yes it makes total sense to just find a single job that pays what 2 jobs pay me but my problem is, the higher in pay you make, the more company treats you like a bytch by constantly having you working around their convenience with fukked up schedules, rejecting time off and vacations, talking to you any type of way and other bullshyt stress.

Thats the reason why I hate salaried jobs especially ones with no incentives or bonuses. If Im off the clock or coming in unscheduled I want some OT pay lol. I know some poeple who make less than me on salaried jobs who can't find another job because its so hard to interview and they are literally slaves to their job.

Yes! I've seen far too many people get shytted like that and the work they put in was not appreciated.

Any current or former ramp agents? I'm doing the 7pm-3am shift right now. Got the WOAT schedule thurs-Sunday

The flight benefits are great, though.

Jesus....those hours and that schedule

I did Graveyard for 6 years and it all really depended on the hours and which days I got off. It was cool when I worked from 9pm-5am and had weekends off,, cuz I would still get home at an early enough time where I could instantly fall asleep and knock
out for a good 6-7 hours. Plus, I could still do my thing on the weekends. However, when I worked from 12am - 8 am and had a 25 mile commute which took about 45 minutes for me to get home, AND had to work weekends, that shyt was for the birds

I could never sleep more than a couple hours straight at a time and I just felt like a zombie the rest of the day. Plus it fukked up my eating habits big time. I wouldn't mind doing it again part time for extra cash but the hours and days off gotta be straight first.
