By the time anyone else gets to work I’m jacked up on caffeine and I’ve gotten 2-3 hours worth of shit done, and the first thing my bosses see when they log in is that I’ve finished all of the morning work requests.
Doesn’t that just result in you doing more work in a day than everyone else? If my boss realizes I’ve done everything they just assign me more work. Sod that.
You can work night shifts, get paid more, feel better than during the day, not miss business hours because you’re working at the same time as everyone else, and enjoy the outside without people in better air and no eye pain from the sun.
I’ve noticed I’m naturally a morning person when I’m able to upkeep good work-life balance. I love waking up super early, catching the sunrise, hearing the morning birds, and having a nice, long, calm morning. When the job is too demanding and too stressful, I sleep like shit and wake up in madness, depend too much on coffee, and just feel like shit 80% of the time.
There is definitely a fine line. I think “morning people” are more volatile and 1 small hiccup can ruin an entire morning and throw them off for the rest of the day. Night people tend to just sleep longer and miss some stuff but overall have no change to routine when something goes wrong.
Being a morning person is a superpower.

Awesome.

It’s not like I get paid per resolved ticket

Until you’ve been doing it for a few years, and it’s winter, and you only have 6 hours of daylight per day, and you see 0 of them.
When I used to work monitoring CCTVs it was like this. Drove to work in the dark, Go into a windowless office for 12 hours, Go home in the dark.
I used to have my lunch at like 1:00 a.m.
Night Shift IS easy, but then again I’ve always been something of a vampire
Actually I saw more sun when I worked nights. I’d go to bed around 10-12 so I has from 7am until then to see the sun and not be stuck working.
Don’t forget your social life deteriorating because you’re working or sleeping whilst your friends are meeting up
I mean, when you’re morning person you also just spend all those daylights hours at work so
Unless you work outside, I wouldn’t say there’s that much of a difference
I’m a troglodyte, I’m cool with that, but yeah it isn’t for everyone.
Accurate. 🤟
