Yeah that sounds shitty


Ima try to get back on a nightshift job


I find a lot of places pay a few cents more the hour because of a night schedule
I prefer night shift, but I'm a night owl :owl:

I just this new job. Its pretty cool because i am forklift driver at a processing plant. Personaally, i love forklifting. its one of my favorite skills i have. Really enjoy it.

However, there isnt always forklifting work, so sometimes its other repetitive general labor stuff too. not so fun.

Well, im on a 12 hour shift (as its a 24 hour plant) and its a rotating shift.

I was on day shift, and this month is night shift only for me, then October is  day shift.

Last night was my first 12 hour night shift and it was rugged. Its so hard to stay conscious all night long.

tonight is another night of night shift, and im still pretty worn out from last night.


Have u guys ever had night shift? Did u handle it well? Do u ever get used to it?



I work from 330 to 12 at midnight. I'm not a morning person so that's what I chose. I too operate a forklift so kudos to that. I just can't be sitting for too long so I get on the picker and drive around and shit all over the warehouse. It's pretty neat.

nah, not really. but i did work construction(pulling low voltage cable) for a couple years, and there were several worksites that we could only enter from 7PM - 5:30AM so there were a few weeks here and there when i worked 'evenings' from like 6:30 past 1am

i didnt like it very much, cause after i got home i was still all worked up, and it took like 4 more hours to wind down and fall asleep. got me all off track

You mean he wasn't allowed to take his 2 hours of breaks and was just expected to keep working? Yeah that would be bullshit (actually, that would be illegal). If they were forced to take unpaid breaks, not so much. In a lot of places they're actually legally required to give you breaks, depending on how many hours you work.

If the former is true, I'd mention to your buddy that he may be able to sue the company for all that off the clock work. Can go through DoL or a lawyer who specializes in those kinda things.




No no he still got breaks, they were just unpaid which I always thought was shit. I've worked similar jobs and I would get 30 minutes paid break.

Ah yeah it just depends on the company you work for then. Some are greedy dicks and will do anything in their power to avoid paying you extra money, some aren't.

I'm in healthcare.  But it seems the same way, pretty chill at night.  People are mostly sleeping. 

I'm hoping it's chill enough to do homework/study or else I'll need to ask to go to part time.

they arn't gunna let u study, they will tell u to go wash a window or doornob, managers always like to make dumb shit up just to keep people busy, and if it isn't the manager it will be a coworker who goes and complains to them saying they are doing more work than u are

Haha I should say that next time. One time I was out smoking and I thought this guy walking by was one of our residents because my works kind of like on a quiet street so I asked him "who he was" and this deep voice just responds "none of your fucking business!" :lol: I was like okkkkk that's definitely not a kid

That change from dark to light again makes me feel so gross. Thankfully it can be avoided until clocking out at 6:50 or so by staying deep in the store
