Nick Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I did it for 10 months and hated it, 4 days on, 4 days off alternating between days and nights. I just couldn't get into the routine of working nights, and the fact that the job was boring as hell didn't help either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Exactly what I did. Worked in a network operations centre as first & second line support for a 3G network, only problem is nothing ever went wrong ! I was buying DVD's in the end so I'd have something to do at work, knew then it was time to leave.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Ads Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 used to do shifts for 6 years, just recently changed to regular days. I feel so much better now. Feel more awake and healthier. Took a big paycut but well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazboy Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 It must be a bitch to wake up that early in cold winters:( Oh yes. It's not too bad in May-June-July as it's already hot and sunny by 4.45am, but on a cold winter night I find it impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
