I'm working midnight shift for the next month

[Omaha Steve]

I go in tonight at 11:30. It is part of my training for my promotion. I have to know what work gets done on the other shifts in case I get called in to work a shift for somebody that's sick etc... At least there are 3 holidays in the month. I took a day of vacation so I can watch election results Tuesday night. I don't know how active I'll be for the month of November. Think of me IF I'm not around. I still won't know for a week or two if I passed my EPA test.

3. I've a 3rd shifter for the past 5 or so years...

the secret is to get to sleep early when you get home..within an hour or so..if at all possible.

be prepared for your bowel movements to go through some changes too..just thought I'd warn ya about that.

Keep up the good fight!

5. HA!!!!!!

That's the first thing I thought. I worked grave yard for six months in '95 and believe it or not my bowels still haven't recovered. I quit drinking too. The first day I found myself watching the Today Show with a beer in my hand and it just didn't feel right. Drinking beer in the morning makes you feel like a degenerate.
