Been working overnight for about 12 years now... I prefer ot because I don't have to deal with customers and I get to listen to podcasts all night...

I work at a King Soopers (Kroger)... And not all customers are bad, but the bad ones spoil it for everyone... Also sometimes it's just the sheer amount of customers that make things annoying...

I just switched to a weekend day shift about a month ago after over 20 years on the night shift. I prefer fewer people on the night shift, but am finding the days off better on day shift.

Don't like customers and I've always been a night person anyway. Used to not start getting tired until about 4am anyway, so it wasn't too rough to adjust to overnights. Did it for about 4 years around 2000, then like 16 years in a theatre (wasn't overnight, but shift normally lasted until around 2am), and closing in around 4 years overnight again at my current job.

The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact.
Everything else, is theory.

Have done night shift since I was 17 (43 now).
Would start the jobs on day shift and then when a spot opened up I'd switch to night shift.

Did nights at Circle K, Sweet Bay/Food Lion Warehouse, Arizona Juice Warehouse and Walls-Mart (ran electrics for 4 years).

Definitely prefer night where everything is more lax.

do you sleep during most of the day? kinda harder to get stuff done during the day?
