    I work overnights at a hospital doing security and it is very hard on the body. You never get used to it.

    I worked a 12 hour nightshift for 4 years,and it messed up my eating habbits aswell as my sleep, and i went stick thin and everyone said i look like a smackhead,its not good.

    That's what I work. 6:00 pm to 6:30 pm 7 days in a row.

    My sleep schedule is definitely wacked out sometimes. I can usually sleep from 8 am to 2-3 pm. I try to do everything like normal. Eat a breakfast type meal when I wake up, eat a couple of small meals while at work and then workout for an hour each night.

    I like it because working at night is more money and less work.
    and you get to catch up on a ton of movies :P ;)

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    What isn't linked to cancer anymore ? :roll:

    I did the night shift for almost a year...absolutely brutal

    I would get home about 6:30am go right to bed...and wake up some days at 10am and feel like I had slept for hours...your body and mind do some freaky things

    I would feel like crashing at about 4am every night and then get a boost around 6am when it was time to go home
