    Yup. I had to make a co-worker pull a 16 on Thursday because I was scheduled for 2nd shift. No way I would have made it through a 2nd shift...3rds are so much easier. And I had to pull a 16 myself a week ago for a different co-worker that was sick. Ugh...

    I primarily work 3rd but I will relieve anyone from any shift if it is necessary. I <3 me some overtime! :smiley:
    But I prefer 3rd because then I get to walk/jog around and we have a fitness facility so I can get a bit of a workout in while getting paid.

    Aaah...yes...third shift exercise. Back when I had a shred of motivation I'd do Pilates and yoga in the back office!

    On days when I just don't have the motivation to actually hit the workout building I just walk. We have a Kubota car thing that we're supposed to use for our patrols but I just walk everything instead.

    The only time I love morning is when it is 7 A.M. and I'm clocking out!

    Hahaha me too @Frankie_Felinius‌ When we leave in the morning I always gush about how the only time I love sunrises is when I'm about to go to bed. I can't believe it's already after 4, I spent half the night on the phone! I felt a little bad for the admins I had to call at home, but at least we finally made sure proper protocol was followed (*)

    Congrats on your loss @lilaclovebird‌

    It's been a good night. All good clients. The last lady came in dress quite proper even though it's 3 AM. She was very enjoyable to work with. I love nights like this. :smile:

    Diabetic co-worker who doesn't take care of himself called in sick(again) today. Had to come in 4 hours early. Hooray overtime! At this rate I'll have my student loans and credit cards paid off by the end of the year!

    Every little thing helps. It's about 9PM here and I'm at work until 7AM so I have a ways to go...

    Night shift? What do you do for a living, if I may ask? :D

    I am a Public Safety Officer(nice PC way of saying Security Guard) for the Univeristy of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center Science Park in Smithville, TX and at the University of Texas MD Anderson Michale E. Keeling Center for Comparative Medicine and Research.

    I get to walk/run a LOT during my shift and I have access to a fitness facility on site. Overall I like it a lot.
