Night shift sucks. I used to do 10 × 12 hour shifts in a row, then flip over to days on my next set. I almost got flattened by a mining truck once. Lol.
The cool thing is that I got to get some really wicked northern lights, light pillars, and moon rings.
So win?
I think that's just your particular job's shifts that sucked, not night shifts in general. I couldn't imagine switching between nights and days, fuck that noise. Normal 5x8 or 4x10 night shifts are great (for some people, if your lifestyle can support it).
The ones that I shake my head at are emergency responders. My neighbor is a fireman. He works the most fucked schedule I've seen. Partly because he takes extra shifts, but their changes from days to nights are bonkers
