And yet,
someone has to do it. That’s just the bottom line. Alcohol can cause cancer indirectly and cirrhosis, yet people still drink. I hope you never end up in A&E on a Friday/Saturday night because of some drunken mishap, or a heart-attack, only to find that no-one will treat you, because no-one works night shifts anymore. Don’t dismiss the essential and invaluable nature of night work just-because you couldn’t do it/take pride in being a morning lark.
