    I work 9-5.30 (hour for lunch which I really appreciate) but given the option I think I'd do 8-4.30.

    Nights.

    Less traffic, less customers, less management, less people in general (don't like people).

    Sadly, I don't get the opportunity to do them so much any more.

    I hate 9-5 days, can't get anything done and when you finally get stuck into something, it's home time.
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    I used to love 12-8s.

    Get up at about 9.30am, get ready, go to the gym, head to work finish at 8 and have my tea ready and waiting. No rush hour traffic, a lie in in the morning.

    Only downside was during summer. By the time you get home the sun has gone in.

    I like my night shifts 10.30pm - 7am,

    working in a 24/7 industry I've worked all of the shifts going, I'm not a morning person so the 7am starts weren't good!!! Late shifts meant if i needed to get to the shops I was able to in the am but most of the time I would just sleep in lol.
    Thanks to money saving tips and debt repayments/becoming debt free I have been able to work and travel for the last 4 years visiting 12 countries and working within 3 of them. Currently living and working in Canada :beer: :dance:
