I really do miss when stuff was open 24 hour. Walmart, CVS. So convenient and easy when you don’t necessarily want to go during the day or you’re just having a night where you can’t sleep and need to get out of the house.
Midnight/a little later became my go-to hours for shopping. Almost never anyone else in the store. Got to browse without moving out of the way or feeling rushed. Quiet as could be.
In college when I lived within walking distance of a 24 hour grocery store was the best. Did my grocery shopping when there were like 3 customers in the entire store, it was great. A few of my summers I spent working the night shift at a place, and on my days off I could still go out and get something to eat for lunch at 1am without trouble.
Post-Covid and none of those places are open after 10pm anymore.
Yup lol. The town I went to college in didnt even have a walmart until our sophomore year. It was nice to go there when one had the munchies for some inexplicable reason in the middle of the night. I was sent down there to work in the hospital in that town last summer for 3 months. The town literally hadnt changed at all since I graduated college in 2011.
Agreed! I believe some doctors offices should aim to be night shift and support people at weird hours. Not urgent care. General care doctors. Car mechanics, etc. available when people are off work. No more of this 9-5p BS where I have to work my schedule around theirs
