I'd love a night shift for the pay and peace and quiet it brings. Unfortunately, I've discovered that no matter how many curtains I put up, how good a sleep mask is, or how many sleeping pills I take, there is no way I can get proper sleep during the day. My body just knows it's daytime and I should be up, despite how tired I am.
And it never fails that when I'm on days, my friends are on nights, and vice versa.
