I won't do it, plain and simple. In fact, my company has decided to do a 9 hour day starting in mid December, 4x9 hour days, 1x8 hour Friday and every other Friday off. Sounds cool, but consider going to work in the dark, getting off in the dark and how little time left in the evening when you get home. Missed time with the family mainly.
Also consider that if you take a day off, you get charged 9 hours of personal time, an odd number and with 160 hours personal time per year, it shorts your actual vacation weeks.
I feel strongly enough about it to consider going part time, 4x8 with ALL Fridays off, that will teach 'em! I'm pretty stubborn you see!
Midnight shifts are hard because it forces sleep during the day, that can be difficult with all the noise and light. I sure cannot sleep enough during the day to feel rested enough to work all night. Some people like it and get used to it but almost all prefer day shifts. If you need a job, you mayy have to put up with shift work, if you do well, there is always an option to change shifts, hopefully. CHeers
