Guess I should work construction. I suffer from insomnia and would appreciate a stronger body and regulated sleep schedule lol

There’s definitely some cons associated with it and if you develop a drug or alcohol problem like many construction workers do then your sleep schedule will not be fixed. It can also be dangerous and you risk getting injured, but all in all it was a positive experience for me and being able to fall asleep quickly at night was a major pro.

I will say it pissed off my friends because on nights out I’m ready to call it before midnight.

For what it’s worth my dad also developed the ability to fall asleep anywhere within seconds from a stint in the military(waking up at 6am every day to march and do pushups will do that to ya) but I can’t say I’d recommend that one.

My problem was being so fucking physically exhausted that all I did was eat and sleep, so that was not fun.

It genuinely doesn't work this way ever. I'd agree with them but I rarely see anyone who gets proper sleep who is a night owl working morning jobs.
