Is this some dayshift joke that I'm too nightshift to understand. I go where I want provided I don't care about sleeping.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Ok......imagine the shops were only open from 4pm-11pm. And not open on your days off.

That's approximately second shift. I suspect the original comment is referring to third.

(Though the point still applies)

I genuinely miss third shift, though.

God I hated second shift. Everything was closed by the time I was off, I had maybe ~10 minutes to drove to the nearest food that wasn't taco bell assuming other places didn't just close early for the hell of it (I refuse to be a karen about it, I'd want to close of shit was slow too). Fucked up my sleeping habits so badly. At least third shift can get breakfast food.

Yeah, if I had to pick a shift, second would have been my third choice.

What would first choice be? Third? And second pick is first shift?

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Pretty much, yeah.

I actually am working second but only because my workplace stopped doing a third shift durring covid. Damn do I miss third shift. I actually enjoyed 3rd shift in winter when I could go months without ever actually seeing the sun.

My condolences regarding your second shift.

I have a family living a normally scheduled life now, but if I didn't, I would go back to third shift in a blink.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago

Yall are crazy, second shift is the greatest. It helps that there's nowhere to go even during the day, lol. So I just get to wake up and go to sleep whenever I feel like it.

i work 20-06. lol

[–] WR5@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hopefully not. Just imagine wanting to go to any store that is only open at times inconvenient to your schedule. I don't think it's hard to understand?

[–] Fosheze@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I had hoped the "provided I don't care about sleeping" would have made it clear I was joking.

[–] WR5@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Ah, I just assumed you meant you generally don't care about sleeping per insomnia or something. Several of my friends on night shifts seem to function with less sleep than everyone else.
