Night shifts

Switching between working regular hours and night shifts can be debilitating for the uninitiated. It messes up one’s biological clock, and the feeling is somewhat like a persisting jetlag.

I may be accustomed to keeping late nights in the comforts of home after a full day’s work but the feeling is quite different from this weekly or biweekly switching pattern. At work the nervous tension lingers and drains; recoving in the day just doesn’t do it, unless I am able to pretend that day is night. I know of people who can maintain this sort of lifestyle but I just haven’t gotten the hang of it.
