I Have Worked the Night Shift

Used to work 11pm to 7am at a gas station. Not many customers during that shift so I was able to get in a lot of sleep.  Sometimes I would get really bored, now this was back before cell phones and gameboys and all that stuff, I would...

I have worked the night shift as well as the first and second shift a lot of times in the same week.  I didn't know if I was coming or going at times!  It was when I first started at the hospital where I work know.  I was...

In college, my job was to be the radio dispatcher at the switchboard. I was responsible for calling the security guards when students would come back to the dorms in the middle of the night. The hours were 2 am to 6 am-- something like...

I just recently transfered from night shift to day shift after 8 long, hard months.
The hardest work in my life thus far.
The shelter sleeps 300 in the winter time, many in cafeteria chairs. 300 of the most vulnerable on the streets...

I have worked the night shift now for over 13 years. It was ok when the kids were younger. Kids now 20 & 18. But now I've had enough of it the only trouble is. If I stopped my wage would drop to much.

I don't think I am going to like it very much.

The job is incredibly easy, I just bring food to poker players who are too lazy to get it themselves, and they tip me like crazy. But the hours are going to kill me because not only...

Things I liked about nightshift, the boss was home sleeping and my team could have more of a laugh together:)
The extra pay made up for my tax deduction, which was nice...

My first experience in a call center was when I was 43 years old.  They fired me after 6 months and I cried.  I remember the HR guy felt terrible seeing an in-between middle and old age lady cry! He was fresh out of college and I must...

After working the night shift for several years, being on day shift no longer holds any appeal! Though the sleep schedule is a beast, I loved being the only one at the post office and the grocery store at 8 a.m. I also enjoyed being...

I worked it when I was 18 and I needed to support my son I worked the Waffle house it was nice because I am such an night owl but now that 2 of my kids are in school its not ideal I need to be up to take care of the baby during the day...

I work at a 7-11 from 11pm until 7am. I kinda like it sometimes but its gets lonely. After a while your mind starts playing tricks on you and you see things out of the corner of your eye. At least I hope its my mind...

Can you say HellShift?

I work the closing shift at a grocery store in a very (you can say) unwelcoming neighborhood. Filled to the brim with thieves, homeless, and druggies. Finding past out men in the the toilet that...

I worked night shift seemed like forever. I prefered it for a while. When It was just "me" I liked being up at night and sleeping in the day. I started out woking in a Nursing Home I lied about my age . I think I was really 14...

When I was in the Navy, sometimes they needed to rotate somebody to night shift and I always volunteered. Nobody else would. I love it. No traffic, its not as hot (I was a jet mechanic), more laid back, you can wake up late.... Its just...
