Until about 3 years ago i did nightshifts for 10 years, i did it because i thought it was a good way to earn money as i had a second job that i did some daytime shifts at.Nightshifts have the advantage that you have the option of going to bed/not going to bed the next day so ou feel like you have more time off, but it really wasnt until i gave them up that i realised how bad i felt, i was tired and grumpy all the time, and used to get cracking headaches,now i manage a shop but i have started to do a sleep in once a week privately for a disabled lady, even that is hard the next day and i don't know how i ever survived a waking night!! Oh and the drinking fluids was a problem! it's weird that i can go on a night out, drink several glasses of 'fluid' and not have to get up to the loo during yhe night, but on a nightshift i had to have a 'cut off' point say about 5.30am where i couldnt drink after that otherwise i woke up all morning for the loo, it's like my body knew it was day time and therefore should be able to go to the loo haha
ReplyDeleteI hate them too, i havea problem with headaches think that may be due to not drinking much during the day
