Thursday evening started my first night on night crew. Didn’t get a whole lot of sleep, just a couple naps in an attempt. Slept within an hour of getting home this morning. It’s probably going to take two weeks to a month to get used to the schedule again. Still feel a bit tired but coffee is helping me wake up.
A plus with working this type of schedule is that if I need to take care of any bills or something similar, I know that the place will be open. Like when I needed to do a check up for insurance purposes, I didn’t need to wait for a day off or even ask for it off. Just went after work. Sleeping afterwards may be shortened a little bit, but the feeling of accomplishment helped a little bit.
Even though it’s been a little while (a couple years), still an adjustment. Not sure how long I’ll be doing the night shift. Looks like it’s a need to be filled, and a change of pace was what I was looking for. It’ll also help with me preparing to go back to the Chicago area. Not sure how long that will take though. Just need enough to get me there, get my license situated, a place to live, and time enough to find another job.
