i tend to turn into a chaotic creature of the night if i’m not working on a schedule someone else has decided (my ideal sleep would honestly probably be 6-12 or so.) when i first started working i opened, but had been u employed for a month or so and was on that sleep schedule, more or less. when my shift ended at 1 that first open i was like “damn... i would normally just be waking up but i’ve already worked a full 8 hour shift.”

My store opens at 5:30, so I have to get up at 4:30, but sometimes I need a nap during the day and sometimes these naps turn into accidental full-nights’ sleeps. And I end up waking up at 11:30pm so I have to stay awake all night. This is one of those nights.

I feel this soooo much. My store opens at 5am but I too am a total night owl. I fall sleep at 11 and wake up at 3 because I “nap” for like 5 hours. I just really love having my day open so I choose to suffer.

2 real. me after my open/close/open this week

Me working that exact shift right after graduating high school, going to parties, then taking a nap to go open.

😂

This is me every time I open. I’ll be laying there with my eyes closed realizing it’s something like 11 and I can still get five more hours of sleep. Okay it’s 1 I can still get three hours of sleep. And on and on.

I'm a lil green bean with narcolepsy. This means when I open (morning shift starts at 5) I have to wake up at 4 which means if I'm not asleep by 9pm at *the latest* the day will not be good.

Why is your store opening at 4 am? :(
