This is why I could never work days, all them cars and those funny strange little people things. It would drive me nutty.

I’ve been on nights for 3 years and love it. All those empty clear roads and even the occasional human people things that I meet seem to be friendlier than all those grumpy day people :smiley:

Idid it once before but this time around i found it tough going.I was feeling sick all the time and fed up with doing bed, work,work ,bed no life,so ive took a day job with less money but hopefully better health and a better lifestyle :smiley:

Im thinking about going nights purely for financial reasons. I just don’t know if i could cope with the boredom and monotony of the same run every night.

Depending on what you do you could find yourself going to bed when it’s dark and getting up and it’s still dark at this time of year! At least the grass cutting is over till the spring…!
