Nah it's great, but the sun is a lot scarier than I remember

The sun is bad, it causes cancer. We're better off without it.

Water is bad, it drowns people. We’re better off without it.

Humans are bad, they cause murders. We're better off without them.

Every human ever born ends up dead, coincidence!? Humans have been dying as long as humans have been around, sounds suspicious to me.

As someone who literally cannot tan, yes. Sun bad. Sun burn, sun cause cancer. Sun cause hot, cause sweat, throw up, and faint.

I did night shift for like 9 years. I actually preferred it and 10ish years later I have no regrets about it. Honestly I kinda wish I still had that job. The place has changed how it works a lot according to someone I still talk to that is still there, so I would probably hate it now. But other than management sucking, I was damn good at it and it was satisfying. Not the work itself, (it was just a warehouse for a clothes company) but I was satisfied at how well I picked everything up and other than a handful of positions, given the ability to loop time, I could have run the whole place minus those particular spots.

Either way, that part of it was satisfying. And I liked not always missing stuff that happened during the day. I could switch sleep schedules to fit other plans when necessary. I wasn't always just automatically out of a given social interaction because of the time, or unable to make a certain doctor appointment.

Unfortunately, companies used covid to gut us night workers.

Now I have to get up in the middle of my 'night' and deal with a bunch of jackasses if I want to get errands ran.

Unfortunately, even for those who prefer night shift, it has negative health impacts, increasing one's risk of heart disease and diabetes.
