    Weekends night shifts?
    It takes a special breed of person to do them :D
    I've been working the night shift for 17 years now on and off, wouldn't want to work days :D

    I used to love working nights. I worked weekends until I was 23, once I finished, I really appreciated them having never had them in adult life before.

    Night work is fun. I've always found the antics I've got up to have been with fellow night workers :D
    I remember having an ice cube flipping tournament once when we were bored behind the bar of a club I once worked in :D

    I know what you mean. I used to work in Central London on nights whilst at uni and there was nothing more satisfying than catching the tube at 6.30am and watching everyone else slog into work as I was going home. I never appreciated weekends until 2 years ago when I started a Mon-Fri job. I do prefer week days off though I just wish everyone else wasn't at work then!

    I used to love having weekdays free for peaceful shopping :D
    Now I just love having them free for school run, assemblies, sports days, etc....
    I get to go see all the stuff my poor parents couldn't see me do as they both worked all week.

    Yeah, it was great coming hope from work on a cold rainy day, seeing everyone, knowing you were about to jump into a nice warm bed!
