@Barelygettingby I ended up walking around like a damn zombie!!! Messes with your quality of life in my opinion :)

@69mrsmith69 Yes, it can actually take a toll on your health after a while. I started to get sick quite a bit more often than I did before.

Hey, at least you have a job, which is more than some of us can say. But I know, it can be a pain. I remember when I was working nights and I always had to cut out of parties early, and people never seemed to understand that it was just as important for me to be on time for my night job as it was for them to be on time for their day jobs. They would say, "Can't you be just a little late? We're not done yet here." That became frustrating.

@TeresaRudolph71 Friends understand. Acquaintances can get a bit too demanding. If you had to leave extra early, because you had no car and we're going by bus, a good friend would leave early with you, and drive you to work, and return to the party later.

@Serenitree I agree. It was actually a friendly acquaintance, who had given me a ride to the party, who wanted to stay and talk to some guys, who also wanted me to stay there with her and give her moral support because she was a little nervous. So I ended up going to work by bus because she didn't want to leave, after listening to her complain about me leaving her alone to meet guys on her own. I think I ended up being a few minutes late to work, but I managed to keep my job. But yeah, that was frustrating. 🙄

@TeresaRudolph71 I understand. I've had "friends" like that. Briefly.

@Serenitree Not impossible but I need a break. It is getting hard and I'm feeling yukky.

@Barelygettingby Perhaps I has the wrong night job. It was as a night watcher in a halfway house for psychiatric patients who were not quite ready to be out in the world. Once they were medicated they slept all night. The house waa dark. Quiet.. But I wasn't allowed to fall asleep. And they knew because there was CCTV in each common area of the house. .

@Scubaguy027 mine is highly stressful and fast paced. Often no time for a lunch break or even a bathroom break.
