13 hours in to a 62 hour shift. Thank goodness for quick naps.
It was pretty good last night but it's pretty slow this morning. It must be the good weather. Everyone is out in the mountains or at the lake. 0 -

Beginning of World Laboratory Animal Liberation Week. This is going to be a long week. I've only been here an hour and it feels like I've been here for 3. I've got my more annoying coworker with me here tonight doing patrols. I don't wanna be here with the thunder and lightening and the rain. I want my bed and a good book or a nap.
At least with this crappy weather we shouldn't have many people trying to break into the facility to try and 'liberate' our animals.0 -
@missliss4763 A DISPATCHER?! I work for the University of Texas Police Department-Houston and I LOVE our dispatchers and the county dispatchers are great! I am CONVINCED you guys are magic. The magic, safe, calm voices at the other end of my radio. You save lives! I don't even know you and I love you.

The worst part, is some of them scream about 'freeing' the chimpanzees we have. They don't even REALIZE that a LOT of the chimps we have are from people who bought them to be pets(stupid people) and from other labs that kept them in small(I mean no room to stretch out) cages. They were not socialized and have mental problems.
If they come in here and try to 'release' them, they could be seriously injured or even die. Especially considering grown chimps can be 6-8 times stronger than an average human male.

I understand not wanting people to do research on animals. However, "Liberating" them only condemns them to death. They will either starve, get injured, or become a danger and need to be shot. That doesn't sound like they did the animals any favors. You couldn't convince them of that.0

You call that crappy? Ok call me odd but I'd rather stormy weather than sunny.
As far as the animal thing, I'm impartial but yeah the dumbasses that try to keep them as powers are just that. Leave'm in the frickin wild.0 -
I think many nightshifters may enjoy stormy weather...better sleeping weather! At least for me grey, overcast, stormy days are the best days for sleeping! I hate sunshine and warm weather (no matter what shift I work). I'd live somewhere it snowed year round if I could...but I know I'm the minority.0

EXACTLY! @Frankie_Felinius Although I prefer sunshine,
I love it when it's stormy and rainy in the daytime. Makes for good sleeping. However, working through it during the night is not so much fun and it seems to only really rain and storm in Texas at night.
The other thing I don't like is when it rains here, everything floods. Rivers, lakes, my front yard. If the storms could leave some soil after they have come that would be nice.0 -

I can sleep through anything......I like my sleep......but my other half has just started working nights too....in January this year....first time ever......I have been on Nights now 7 yrs perminant........within one month of her being on nights.....I had to install a black out bland at the bedroom window.....triple seal the windows for sound.........put a curain up at the landing window....as the light comes under the bedroom door and wakes her.........its like the blair witch project in my house all the time.....pitch black.........I should wear black eye liner and get Marilyn Manson tattoos........lol.......0 -
Right everyone.....I have some sad news.........
I have found one of our founding memebers.......she has sadly departed us,.......... @cindytw is no longer a nightshifter.......she has gone to the other side........SHE WORKS EVENINGS...........please take a minute to give an old friend a good send off to the dark side...(or should that be a bit lighter side...as its evenings...)
She has told me she no longer feels deserving of our friendship anymore.......as she has deserted us.........0 -
Wait a minute...Am I actually up later than the Night Shift??0

Even when I worked days, I liked stormy days better. Maybe I'm just odd. You're not alone in preferring snow to warm weather though, I feel my best when temps are below 40F.0
