    A little background food for thought working the night shift used to be called or sometimes it still call the graveyard shift.

    Before bodies were found they were just laid in the ground whole. In Transylvania they believe Let the Bodies what off and come back as vampires or zombies. So they had people stay awake in the graveyard all night to make sure the dead slept

    And as well during that time the term dead ringer appeared again during that time they did not embalm bodies they just laid them to rest some of which comatose and not dead.

    So to prevent someone from being buried alive They would tie a string to their finger attach it to a bell outside of the grave and if that person was not dead and woke up all they had to do is pulling the strings and people would dig them up.

    So now you have been educated. Comments below

    or a horn so that they could be heard yelling, as was the case with Robert E. Lee's Mother on the front lawn; before he was born!

    Yeah, it was irritating at first but I have learned to not take it personally...rumor has it when they hired the night dispatchers (we're both female) one driver quit over it
