I work over nights, and I'm really bored!!! Trying my best not to smoke or eat too much because of it, and I've been actually keeping myself pretty productive but damn it's hard! Especially when I finish my work within the first 4 hours I'm here and have the rest of the night to just wander... so whats going on with everyone? I need some entertainment!!!

I work nights too....and I only work the first 2 hours of my shift and the last 2. So I have to watch my intake also. I usually try to snack lightly instead of having full meals.0

Wow go you guys!!! I am literally the only employee here too so it's definitely boring, I've been trying to catch up on my German and learn to speak it some more, it sounds bad to complain about not having to work while being at work, BUT I don't like to always sit on my *kitten* staring at the tube!! lol0
-
I am alone as well...me and my sleeping patient. I feel your pain. I have no one to talk to and nothing to do but chit chat with you good folks on the computer....which I really cant complain about that. Meeting some really chill and cool people on here.0
-
Awesome, so do you do sleep studies?0
-
Yep! That's me! Your resident sleep technologist.0
-
That's awesome I'm always trying to look into my sleep habits because I do some crazy ****, what exactly do you look into like dreams, habits, sleep apnea?0
-
I run the studies that diagnose sleep apnea, narcolepsy, and restless leg syndrome. I hook up leads and watch your brain activity, muscle tension, eye movement, leg kicks, and breathing patterns while you are sleeping.0

I cant even lie....I am dragging serious @$$ right now. I need to finish staging this lady's study so I can wake her up0

I work nights 11pm-7am in IT. Thankfully I don't have to be tied to my desk the entire shift. I can get up and walk around. On the weekends, I'll go walk outside for a couple of miles. That always gives me a boost of energy. I can't help with the smoking. Found it gross when I tried it in my early teens.0

same here, night shifters tend to be in **** health but, ive been doing good!0

a lot of soda and candy, chips, and a small pack of peanuts, so if i ever feel like having junk food i just grab a brisk tea (80 cals) & the small peanuts but i haven't had them in a long time. if i'm craving a soda i'll have the tea with half the cals as my treat0 -
we've got a fridge here too lol, i guess it's somewhat a good thing i work night shift because i dont usually keep cash and bring something from home so that way i dont order anything out which i really couldnt anyways since they all close by the time i get in lol0
-
we have a fridge too, a few f them actually but you know.. the coffee room has that devil box filled with all kinds of goodies! I think i just might grab me a fiber one bar. BRB0

There is a company based out of Alabama that I credit with saving my diet on a regular basis. They are called Milo's and they make tea products. Well they make a gallon jug of sweet tea that is sweetened with Splenda and has no calories in it. I drink about 2-3 gallons of it per week.0

i work at a seventh day adventist hospital so we dont carry any caffeine in our vending machines...so its all water, gatorade, and juices. the snack one has cheez itz, nacho cheese doritos, fruit gummy snack things, fiber one bars, bugles, m&ms, twix, pretty much everything delicious and un healthy lol0
