I’m interviewing for a night shift position in a couple days and I’ve always worked 8-4 or 9-5. I’m a little scared of the idea though! I’m worried about seeing my family less because my sleep schedule will be totally different than theirs.
So, night shift workers of the world, what has your experience been like and how do you manage being present in your family life?
I have delayed sleep phase disorder so I’m one of the ones who got it. Nights are amazing, I function so much better and feel so much more energetic.
But it’s tough on your career. You will never move up working nights, because the faces the bosses see are there during the day. Sucks but that’s how it is.
