I have been a night shift worker for the past 4 years. Basically I am a vampire.
Lol that reminds me. I co-wrote a tune called Vampire Life a long time ago. The last line of the chorus was "Sleep all day... And stay up all night." I need to dig that back out from the depths, if I remember it.
Nothing more beautiful to me in nature than watching the sun rise over an huge expanse of water.
No vote, I don't dissapear during the day or during the night. I can sleep during daylight, and be awake during total darkness. My nickname in Crete, Greece was "Nighthawk". Can go days without sleeping if given the proper motivation and yet can have 10 sleeping sessions in a 24 hour period. I am a Person 24 hours a day and 24 hours a night.
I wish I was a person 24 hours a day. Unfortunately I am a grumpy ogre for part of it.
i just feel more comfortable in my own skin after dark. always have
I'm a person who doesn't like to go to bed, however loves to sleep. When I worked night shifts I'd still stay up too late. I think I need to spend a couple of weeks in the woods with no electricity to reset my internal clock.
Sadly I'm both.
In 1991 I hired on with a RR, which of course is a 24/7/365 operation... and many jobs are union. Which means seniority rules. So I started working midnights, thay way I could spend afternoons with my daywalker spouse!
I worked midnights for well ovee 20 years. A few years ago it was like my body got tired of sleeping in the daytime. So now I had scads of seniority and a little over a year ago I bid a dayshift/weekends off job!! Totally freaked out everyone in the office, but I had to do it.
I definitely sleep better now. But I am still stunned by how damn bright the sun is around noon!
I'm the type of guy that has trouble waking up, and also trouble falling asleep... so definitely a night person. My body makes no sense to me.
Night owl... my entire family is. It sucks that my boss demands 8-5 working hours as the nature of the work does not demand it. My most productive hours are after 3PM. Earlier requires caffeine.
i'm the same!
Am a morning lark. Am up by 4 or 5am.
@PraiseXenu Sunsets look the same, just on the other side. ☺
@PraiseXenu We will have to agree to disagree. It is the early worm that gets eaten by the bird. ☺
