Any third shifters out there? Sitting around plugging at computers and machines all night can get boring.

    If it wasn't for the 20% pay differential I wouldn't do it. But that makes it a hair easier to accept.

    Second shift here, I absolutely love it more than anything and would never go back to days if I have any control over it. Midnight-3 am is my "after work decompression" time (e.g., for TV watching, eating dinner and goofing off online).

    Really? I see second shift as the worst shift possible. Basically takes up your whole day. By the time you get some sleep and get up. You've only got a couple hours until you head back to work. That's my take anyway.
