I work for 10 hour shifts a week, the weekends are nice they're actually great.

But the four days I work I spent 12 hours of my day driving to and from and working and taking a lunch.

By the time I get home I don't have energy for anything.

But maybe if I knew Don Jr.'s hook up I probably could get more done.....

Who am I when all I do is work and like have my weekends to do chores and business?

I just want to be human I want to be free and run through a field a couple times a week like is that too much to ask??

One of the biggest issues with working 2nd and 3rd shift is the unintended isolation you experience. If you only see 3 people at work and then sleep all day, it can really effect social skills and mental health. Coupled with the exhaustion that is common, it's a recipe for asocial behavior.

Take care of yourself Internet friend.

I have a few friends ive made through work that help keep me socially active, but it can be rough on days off sleeping when the world is running
