18 Hours

Seven hours more and I'll finally be done with this 18 hour shift. Been here since lunch time today, and will go home tomorrow, breakfast time. Yes, it's tiring but someone's got to do this job.

Today is also my last day in the swing shift, and will be back in the morning shift starting Monday, until the end of the month. 3 different shifts for some of us, and permanent shifts for most. Since I'm getting sleepy, let me try to list down some of the advantages and disadvantages of our 3 different shifts.

* Morning shift

6 AM to 3 PM

Advantages

- Basically normal working hours (day shift), just a couple of hours earlier

- When you get off from work, you still have a lot of time (and sunlight) to do a lot of things

Disadvantage

- Waking up really early

* Swing shift

1 PM to 10 PM

Advantages

- For people with an active night life, their other lives start after shift

- For people like me, I get to go home, play or watch DVD's until dawn, sleep, and still won't be late for work

- It's the least busiest shift

Disadvantages

- I will miss all the gigs and events, or even a simple family dinner because I get out after dinnertime

- The sun is scorching hot on the way to the office

* Graveyard shift

9:30 PM to 6:30 AM

Advantages

- I can still have a semi-normal life and have gigs before my shift (that's the whole day)

- There's no sun that'll burn my skin

Disadvantages

- Sooo sleepy

- Until now, I still find it kinda weird going to work on a certain date, and going out on a different date

These are the things I can think of as of now. I may think of new things in the future and I may or I may not update this post. Haha!
