Bugging your brain like a stone in your shoe!Night Nurse!
It's well researched and documented now that shift workers, particularly those who work night duty, are at increased risk of health deterioration. It's true!
So, why am I working the night shift tonight? Doh!
You'd think that being in charge of the ward, i should be able to escape the jaws of unsocial hours but in the interests of seeming to be 'in with the troops' I figured it wouldn't hurt to schedule teh odd night duty here and weekend there... Stupid!
I haven't worked a night shift in about two years and I have no idea how I used to get sleep during the day before... I've been awake since about 07.00hrs and will be working until 07.45hrs tomorrow!
Erm...
Help!

Hubby does this regularly as he's a firefighter. Can't help you, sorry. It is a well known fact that it does mess with your metabolism and leads to premature death. Just make sure that YOUR hubby has the insurance paid up to date! lol

Faren again.
I hope I survive. I've been doing the night shift for almost 20 years.:faintsinaheapsmilie:
I can't help you with the sleep thing...first night is always a bitch. I try to get a nap the afternoon before and then collapse the next day.
