View Full Version : Woooah, on the night shift...
Alex the Large Apr 24, 2004, 00:43 Tonight, I'm working a hideous 14-hour overnight shift (7pm to 9am) and apart from a couple of pre-rolled exotic fags in my bag, I have nowt but Dogbomb to keep me going through the wee small hours (such fucker). I feel fucking knackered already, and I haven't even really broken the back of it yet.
So A) anyone got any good advice as to how to possibly get through the night without going completely hatstand, and B) what the fuck is everyone else doing up at this time (BST Dogbombers, obv)?

Alex the Large Apr 24, 2004, 01:12 *cough*this and that*cough*
Put it this way, there's nothing for me to do tonight other than sit and wait for something to go wrong so I can arrange to get it fixed.
Cnuts.
magicguppy Apr 24, 2004, 01:15 Am up because another person that works late shifts took the weed to work with him, he'll be home any minute though....
either search through the internet forum or wander around. It's quite a nice night.

If you wanna stay awake try Pro-plus and lots of coffee. If you dont wanna stay awake, set your alarm, have a couple of hours kip. Used to 12 hour nights, 5 days in a row. Didnt add anything intersting to 2 years of my life.
Jedichef Apr 24, 2004, 01:18 i love night shift. my internal clock seems to be set for the opposite of normal folk so its a great option for me. unfortunatly my work doesnt have a night shift.
Alex the Large Apr 24, 2004, 01:48 Yeah, I work nights normally but finish at 2am so it's kinda nice. But actually working THROUGH the night, so you see dawn come up out the office windows, is a bit fucking depressing.
Well, in time-honoured fashion, there's only one way to relieve the crushing boredom: I'm off to the bogs for a wank :D
Jedichef Apr 24, 2004, 01:52 a sound plan.
