and that was why I jumped all over a vacancy on the day unit! I've even lost 10 of the 45 pounds I packed on during the night shift years. I miss the extra pay but enjoy having a waist again.
I hear you about night shifts! When I did nights - decades ago - they were 8 hour shifts. I cannot imagine working 4 extra hours as you do. More power to you!
In my neck of the woods they call that "looking like she was rode hard and put away wet". Hopefully soon you'll be rested, groomed,feeling fresh and ready to enjoy some time off. -Mary
Best post for having a chuckle at the comments. Some people have very quick wits. My morning face and my evening face are very much the same thing. it's a bit better during the day.
Oh, I never would have got this--have forgotten about 24 hour time (and we in the US use : instead of .) What a dreadful time to be waked up. My sympathies.
