Working third shift has some really cool benefits and some awful drawbacks. Benefit #1, I actually get to see Christa once in a while. Benefit #2, I don't get spit on or hit 1/10th as much as I wind up doing during the day. Benefit #3, it's a 9 hour shift, which puts me into overtime. Benefit #4, I don't have to do very much in the way of difficult work (i.e. showering, toileting, community time).
Drawback #1, I don't get any proper sleep. I go to bed and my body screams, "What the hell are you doing sleeping, it's 1 in the afternoon!" So even though I'm absolutely exhausted, I don't get sleep. Drawback #2, it is boring as hell to be at work for 9 hours with virtually nothing to do. Yes, I can bring a book, but theres only so long that even I can read without losing interest...especially when I'm tired. Drawback #3, I like hanging out with these guys (moreso Ron) and not being able to do so because they are asleep saps some of my job's worth.
Tonight is the last night for this week that I'm working third shift, I switch back to 2nd shift on Thursday. I just wish I could get some decent sleep. Well, it's time to get breakfast.
