I worked the graveyard shift in the summers for 3 years before I was 21.

Guess I better get checked...
During Soph/Junior yr HS worked 5+ nights a week setting pins in a bowling alley, double alley/double shift - Only night off was if had (far) away or evening Basketball game on Tuesdays and Friday evening.
That was 1954/55, 55/56...
Of course then Basketball wasn’t played 6 months of the year....
Luckily didn’t have to many ‘derelicts’ in town so didn’t really take a job away from an ‘adult’.
Then went in Navy in 56 where it was ALL shift work.

I came across this video about how this lady beat her MS with the paleo diet. It’s very interesting and informative.
