I’m interviewing for a night shift position in a couple days and I’ve always worked 8-4 or 9-5. I’m a little scared of the idea though! I’m worried about seeing my family less because my sleep schedule will be totally different than theirs.

  So, night shift workers of the world, what has your experience been like and how do you manage being present in your family life?

    So wondering if you mean 2nd or 3rd shift. And for those wondering 1st shift is the “day” shift. Where your start time is ~8 AM and then you end ~3 PM. Then 2nd shift is where you start at ~3 PM and end at 11 PM. And then finally 3rd shift is where you start at ~11 PM and end at 8 AM.

    As you can see there is a BIG difference between 2nd and 3rd shift and what someone might call a “night” shift.
