    I am a night guy most of the year. 9 months to be exact. 9pm-7am with a 5 on 4 off rotation. I Love the time off! I go back tomorrow night so I am up now so I can sleep in the morning. I just wish more of my friends had the same schedule because I end up fishing and hunting alone a lot.

    1am-9am Monday through Thursday. Not too bad of a schedule. Hardly ever work the weekends unless I want some extra hours. Not the best job in the world, but the schedule works for me

    I work 24 hour shifts but only 10 a month. I hate fishing on the weekend. I try to get it all done during the week.

    I was working night shifts most of the last 20 years. Love the shift! Hate what it does to you physically . I got a real good gig now again. Not working!

    I fish from about 8 pm to 2-4 am regularly(4-5 days/week), sometimes until sunrise all throughout warm months..

    Does that count as work?

    I work 10pm-6am, and I’m sick of it!! I’ve been doing it for 9 years, but hopefully I only have about a year of it left.
