Default What shift pattern would you rather work?
Are you more of an “early bird catches the worm” type of person or a night owl?

I always used to prefer the night shift. Less busy, no main bosses about and you got a bit extra pay than day shift.

I do 7:30-3:00 (usually finish earlier though ) and it’s great bc it feels like you still have a good chunk of the day to do stuff done

My other shift pattern is 12:30-8:00 which is awful bc I feel like I can’t do anything in a morning bc i have work soon

I am an early bird but I get stuff done before work like cooking, working out etc so I am more of an 8am bird. Although, I used to start working earlier than that when I used to work with Oceania due to the time difference.
Nowadays I finish around 6PM, but I used to work way later than that. But work life balance is very important so lighter days it is.

Ditto. I’ve been doing nights for the past couple of years and wouldn’t change it for the world. I don’t mind evening shifts either.

You don’t really need a job when you’re still living with your mum.
