    If it something you do everyday, I would say no. You can change your profile to being active.

    I would not up my calories.. unless you aren't feeling well due to the extra hours/shift

    Either change your profile as suggested or up your calories via adding your work to your exercise.If you feel bad for logging work like I do and choose not to change your profile Id say log perhaps 2 hours of walking for each 12 hour shift(depending on how much walking you think you may do for that specific day),that will allow you to eat more and keep you from getting too tired.
