[XiaoChilli]

Don’t like it. Body feels heaty. Cannot sleep well and often brain fog

Uncle worked night shift for 20 years before going to day shift and followed by normal shift.

Night shift is tiring even though you had enough sleep but still feel tiring.

Only when working OT. Highest record was working 36, 37 hours rushing for tender submission deadline. That time was in my 20s, still can take it and wasn't that tired. If now, I think I'll be half dead.

Yes, for a few years. It ruined my health (and life), and just hit 30 at the time. Quit, 躺平 for a while to recover, no more night shift (or at least, no longer regular)

Blindfold + ear plugs?

Same... I was able to sleep, but always wake up feeling groggy and tired (because woke up just as or after sunset), and waking hours always have that fog lingering around that I couldn't get rid of. Not even strong teh/kopi.

@Needmysleep don't you find these type of complaint about working night shift amusing?

 

[mgx-alander]

[Ronaldo88]

[Hyruga]

Depends la.

Last time in army work night shift lo

But is work whole day then night, next day 8am book out.

 

[Nuclear Boy]

I got. And work way longer hours than that. And is not shift.

My army friend, who is a fellow lokun like you, can concur. He recounted regularly clocking 30hr-shifts (or whatever it is called) while he was in his residency phase.
