So I prefer closing shift at my job cuz I like being able to sleep in a bit, make breakfast, do some chores, and maybe go for a walk before work, after I usually just wanna smoke weed and play some Brigador.

But my job is cutting hours cuz we're slow as fuck right now. On paper I'm fine with that cuz I'm in college right now and like more homework time, but as the closer it sucks. I'm going into work at fucking 3pm now, nobody can sleep in that late unless they're hungover!

Seriously I get bored around the house but I can't start any activity that'd take up too much time cuz I know I'm gonna have to pack it up and drive to work at some point.

Hope I can get a remote job sometime soon deeper-sadness

Sorry wanted to vent.

    I feel this perspective. When I used to work for GE in 2015, I was on second shift. Our "working hours" was 3-11:30. But everyone worked so much overtime, it was more like 3-12:30 or 1. Then when we were on mandatory 10's, it was 4-2:30 AM every day, to allow day shift to work later. I just embraced the silliness of it all and would go home and drink on my front stoop in the dead of night til 5 AM. That was what helped me through those times, I just treated after work like how I do now, leisure and chores, except it was in the middle of the night lol. I am glad to get off second shift now tho, I've been working like 6AM - 3:30 for close to a decade. When I worked nights was before I met my fiance so I had a lot of solitary time and got to know myself a lot better
