    got another hour till I am off. I work graveyard 11pm-7am. I like the hours and the weekends because no ones here. I can show up in sweats and a dirty shirt and no one cares. I also have lots of downtime during my shift so I browse the interwebz alot.

    I even find time to go outside for a fitness break. 30-45 mins to walk/jog/whatever. the 2 other people I work with are pretty cool and laid back. they cover for me if needed when I am outside.

    plus working these hours I get off work and hit my YMCA and it's not crowded. I hear others that go during 3pm - 9pm. super crowded, parking is impossible.

    drawbacks: lack of sun. (but I live in WA so...) social life can be difficult. most of my friends work your typical mon-fri. they gather together and do things on Sat/Sun while I can't really do nothing until Mon/Tues. but then my friends start their work week so unless a holdiay falls on Monday I don't get to hang out with them much.

    I work in IT @ a Navy base. it has it's advantages. secure location so no traffic or strangers to worry about. my workplace is near a track and field. I used to have access to the gym on base when it was 24/7. that changed though. :grumble:
    oh yay time to go home!

    Only did three hours today, but it was the good stuff. Now, I'm getting ready to go out for a curry. Lovely Saturday!

    I only work every third weekend though so it's not that bad.
