my shift flipped again this week, 3rd time this month, and my body has no idea what time it even is anymore.
been sitting way too long at the desk during the night shift, just watching the monitors, and my neck and lower back are properly stiff now. stood up around 4am and something in my spine made a sound I didnt like.
told myself back in January I’d read more this year instead of gaming so much. hasn’t happened. last night after the shift ended I just opened up a game and didn’t stop till 1am, book still sitting on the shelf untouched.
– neck ‘stiff’ from hunching over the screen for hours
– can’t fall asleep after night shifts even when I’m wrecked
– keep picking the controller over the book every single time
honestly not sure if it’s the schedule thats the problem or just me at this point. anyone else on shift work actually manage to sit less or read more, or is that just wishful thinking?
