How Do You Manage a Job With an Overnight Shift?

Question by s1duri: How do you manage a job with an overnight shift?
I am going into the psychology field, fresh out of college with a BA. I’d like to be a residential counselor at a live-in community program for troubled youth, and a lot of the available jobs are overnight hours on weekdays (like 11pm to 7 am). At first I refused the possibility of being an “Awake Overnight Counselor” because I didn’t think I’d be able to have friends or continue seeing my boyfriend. For those of you who also work overnight hours, how do you manage to have social lives or accomplish other tasks during the day? Or even more basically, is it easy to sleep during daylight hours?

Answer by yentwister
Take your vitamins, and sleep to kill time. You will get used do it as time flies. Don’t worry, If you sleep at 8am, you’ll wake up at around 3 pm. more time for hanging out.

I am a student working at a hospital, and I enjoy the overnight shift because I don’t have a chance to enjoy the sunset.

Don’t you enjoy the sunrise? =D
