I have the opportunity to go from nights to days, but I'm nervous! I've been working nights for so long that I have no idea what a "normal" bedtime is. How did the first week or two go for those of you who recently made the switch? Was it a total nightmare, or did you adjust pretty quickly?

I switched two years ago! I was so scared at first because on my unit day shift is much more hectic, but it’s so much better for my mental health on my days off! Trust me I miss nights but a little more work (for less pay sadly) is worth it. The adjustment took a week or two

I went fron nights to days and am soooooooo much happier. I hated being on nightshift. It was a hard adjustment at first but I am used to it and my body got used to it pretty quickly.

I made that switch two years ago. It's really no big deal at all. I already kind of had the normal bedtime habit from my days off, when I was operating on normal people hours again. It only took me a week or so to adjust.

It’s great for your long term health! Your body will adjust fairly quickly

Days so much better for your health

What law firm is your favorite for run of the mill employment issues in the US and internationally (India, Australia, UK, Germany, etc.).

So, who are you using and are you happy?

How do we feel about Joe Biden:

Should organizations take similar action? For example declaring that their next CEO will be a woman.

Comforting others:

Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
