I'm on nights tonight J , my first one tho so carnt sleep today struggle like fook,but after I've done a shift no problem wi kip Although I dont need quite as much sleep as I used to .must be an old bastard thing mate ! I've worked continental shifts for years and must admit when I was younger used to be in bed all day even before my first shift!
Night shifts are horrible, I've done them for nearly 20 years now and they don't get easier. Apparently they knock years off your life expectancy , it's not natural is it to be grafting at 3 o' clock in the morning.

Totally agree mate ......but what's this GRAFTING word ?
That's the trouble with my job the only difference between 3 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon is it's dark outside, the work is the same 24 hours a day including weekends.
