Working my 2nd job. Anyone else? Nightowls?
I work 2 jobs. This will be my last weekend until the new year.
I'm kinda sitting on my butt until 6 am central. Medical device plant in E. TX.
Not a night owl, but just sat at my desk at my UK office...
I work maintenance, although I do clean room work sometimes. It’s 3rd shift and 45 or so people. Other job is shutting down after Thanksgiving.
Things will get better on Jan 20th! Amen!
Other job shutting down until 2025 that is.
Where in UK?
12X6 every week here. Brutal OT but Buckwheat say pay O-Tay!
Dang 12x6 is brutal! I do 3x12 here and 4x8 on reg job.
I salute you!
Rocket Engine parts. Huntsville, Alabama. Deep South, US.
Retired night owl here. Used an alarm clock most of my life. No Mas. When I gave a month’s notice to my last job, I was asked, over and over and over “what are you going to do?” My very first answer was always “sleep in.”
Worked graveyard shift at Safeway grocery store in my 20’s. Very strange. On your day off, you return to sleeping at night, like most humans. The next graveyard shift is hard.
They don’t use the term ‘graveyard shift’ in hospitals. Probably a good thing.
Cool beans. Scuttlebutt is Huntsville is going to take off soon!
Yes, sleep escapes us sometimes
Own my own business, but my sleep at night has been sporadic with a 2 am bladder.
Can’t afford to retire, so this is what I do.
I do manage four Ping! lists, so the night owl act works wonders.
Not working tonight but I’m a vampire as well. Typically fly all night worldwide
I “retired” in 2016.... joke was on me!
I guess I’m like a shark. Swim or sink.
I don’t think I will ever retire, but I’m OK with that.
Cool! Commercial? People?
Kind of a night owl. Picked that up in high school and college. But I also work 8:30am ‘til 5:00pm.
Woke up because of a cold. Took some Tylenol. Grabbed some Pepsi to drink. Checked on a sick (but recovering) 8 year old Boxer dog.
Just hanging out here for a few minutes before trying to go back to bed.
United Kingdom.
The company I used to work for, the owner used to work his butt off and so did we.
Small company, but we had gov contracts galore. I miss it sometimes. Minus the travel.
We did fuel systems. Lots of military and big tech data centers and hospitals, etc.
Still in touch with the old man. He cannot sit still. I can’t either.
I did love working on bases/reservations.
74 and way retired. Just got setting up trades in the market for tomorrow, only way to keep myself in Milk and cookies.
One thing I’m noticing as I grow older, the younger people don’t seem to want to work much for their daily keep, and it seams they like to steal stuff (not use to those types)
Good night, get some rest
Retired.
Night Owl.
