Do something that works your brain, like crossword puzzles. Once you get deep into those late hours, exercising your brain will keep you awake better than caffeine or something along those lines.

Oh I worked overnight at a place before this, so I'm used to it. Just feeling out what I can get away with.

Oh alright, I get that. I did overnight self checkout at Kroger for 7 years, and I did overnight security for a couple, so i've been there. Both were 11 to 7 shifts.

Mine's 10 to 6 at a gas station. I was doing evenings before this, so no more customers, cleaning the grill, stocking soda, etc. It's pretty sweet.

Before this, I was an alarm dispatcher. A marked step down, but at least it's still easy money.

Welcome to the brotherhood!

My shift is 10 to 7. Get a nice laptop. Gaming and Netflix/YouTube is by far the most effective method I've found to pass the slow hours.

Graveyard is God-tier shift, imo


Depending on what youre doing, yeah its basically free money. It can completely obliterate your social life though.

I'm so glad I don't have to force myself to sleep anymore so I can wake up and rush to work. No matter what, I'm always up all night, and happier at night, then sleep at dawn or so. It's like magic.

How? You're sleeping while they're at work and up when they're just getting off. At least that's how I did it

I worked from 10pm to 6:30am, slept from about 10am to 4pm [not really, I sleep far less than that, but I'm trying to prove a point, lol], and wake up.
