Yeah. It's my day off too. I cope by staying up all night so I don't have to drink a boatload of caffeine tomorrow.

Also, my biggest problem with working nights is figuring out when to eat my meals. The last thing I want to do when I get home is make breakfast/dinner before sleeping.
I eat the same time I normally would...every 3-4 hours. I'll have a late supper before I go to work (around 9-10pm) and then bring s couple light meals or snacks for 1ish and 4ish.

Okay. I will definitely try this next shift. Thanks.

Yeah, I mean there's no reason why your eating pattern should change, really. Everything just gets pushed forward 6-8 hours.
I can't sleep for long after a night shift. I get home shortly after 7 and am asleep by 8, and then wake up around 1 or 2 pm.

Yeah, I missed a lot of them when I was adjusting to the change. I would sleep for ten to twelve hours instead of soldiering through the day.
I'll be interested to see how next week goes. I plan on doing something like waking up at 2030, working from 22 - 6, class from 6 - 14.
Should be fun.

Holy shit, you have class the day after a shift?? Terror. There was a guy in my program first year who worked nights 3 nights a week, and would come straight to school for an 8 hours day after. Guy was a mess.
