About the Night Shift Life

When I first accepted my current night shift job offer, I was nervous.

• How would I maintain my my social life while working the night shift?
• How could I adapt to the night shift?
• What would my night shift sleep schedule be?
• What time would I eat my meals? And what should I eat?
• Would working the night shift make me fat?
• Would it cause me to die early?

I had a lot of questions, but not a lot of answers. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find many helpful articles apart from vague listicles. I wasn’t sure if the the authors had even worked a night shift. 22 million Americans work a night shift, yet I couldn’t find a single website dedicated to night shift workers.

And so I thought, why not I launch it? Thus, the Night Shift Life was born.
