Holy crap man. I commend you.
I used to be a waiter through high school and college and had to work the 4-11 or 4-midnight shift all the time. Not to mention the two night you don't want to work (Fri and Sat) are the nights with the most money so you are forced to take one for the team...

be glad I don't live anywhere near you then
when I was selling full time, I used to bring in 10-15 boxes (all needing d/c or customs slips) at a time and of course thats when all the nut jobs need to mail out some stupid bill or letter so i'm blocking the line up for old farts needing a stamp
lol
My Post Offices love me, I have one during the week while I'm at work and one for Saturdays at home. Either way I can walk in and no matter how ridiculously long the line may be they just wave me to the front and I drop them off. Having all your postage printed and packages ready to go is a must if you are serious about reselling.
plus some of us don't have a scale at home that will weigh heavy 4+ oz items...
Going to the PO is much easier and simpler...
^ Was that before the internet??
not quite, but it was awhile ago (I think at the time it was only .50) it was around 2002 or so
didn't have a printer or scale, otherwise I would've been doing it that way
I mean shit, I got my first regular printer about a year ago...
I'll trade you Doug!
oh its nice having a job but im a nighter for life. Im wide awake when the sun goes down and can fall asleep at the first site of the sun. To me working at night you can sleep til 1 0r 2 in the afternoon then have all evening to do what you want. and if you have things that have to be done in the morning that option is open. plus my gym time is usally at 4pm so ill be losing a months training,
6:00am to 3:30pm
4:00pm to 1:30am
4:00pm to 2:30am
10:30pm to 6 or 7am
8:00am to 4:00pm
4:00pm to 12:00am
12:00am to 8:00am
And a few others beside that. I spent the better part of a year working entirely on graveyards (10:30pm to usually 6:30 or 7:00am) which was absolutely terrible. Shift work in general is a bit of a drag honestly. Your body just doesn't adjust well to your constantly fluctuating schedule and it really wrecks you.
Of course now I'm laid off 90% of the time. Yay crappy economy!
1st job 4am - 2pm mon - friday
2nd job 3:30pm til 11:30pm tues, wed, sat
On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermom eter made by Johnson &Johnson
Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed.
Change into very comf ortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken.
Now the fun part begins .
Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully .
You will notice that in small print there is a statement:
' Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson &Johnson is personally tested and then sanitized .
'
Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times, 'I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson &Johnson .
'
