Gunna be worthless tomorrow

[tbudspires]

I work shiftwork, rotating days and nights. Sleep great when working nights, can't sleep at all on days. Got prescribed generic Ambien and sleep like a baby now. Just don't eat within about 3 hrs. or so of taking them or they won't work.

That sounds like me about every other night. One night I sleep good and one night not so much.

This ... I am so happy when I sleep all night -- sometimes it even happens two nights in a row ... and ever the optimist I think, ohh my insomnia is gone ... But it always comes back.

I really feel bad for you guys who have jobs to go to and families to take care of. Being tired is one thing, being exhausted is quite another.

I kept having crazy a$$ dreams all night, waking up every 45 min or so... goodness gracious, must be somthing in the air. Im draggin butt today!

Well, I feel you on the caffine shakes and being worn out. It sucks a big one.

Always give 100% at work .......

12% On Monday
23% On Tuesday
40% On Wednesday
20% On Thursday
5% On Fridays

And remember .......

When you're having a really bad day and it seems like people are trying to piss you off, remember it takes 42 muscles to frown and only 4 to extend your finger and flip them off.

Now get back to work.

Yeah but that doesn't have anything to do with your sleep patterns...

Sleep patterns? I don't sleep. I just lay in bed for 5-6 hours wishing I could sleep.

I am one extreme or the other. Either I can't sleep at all or I am so dead asleep that they would have to wake me up to tell me the house had blown away. The absolute worst is when I am so tired and I get to sleep okay but then wake up in the middle of the night and can't go back to sleep. Of course, I start getting tired just about the time the sun comes up!

Biggest problem for me is that tired doesn't not translate into sleepy. I can be so tired I can't put one foot in front of the other and STILL just lay there staring at the ceiling hour after hour after hour ... blah!
