My Salute to Night Shift Workers in Missoula

When I first started in radio, I worked nights for the first few years. Those that work nights know that particular shift has it's perks: sleeping in, staying up late on ANY given night, you're usually the only one in the building, etc. Well, for the last 10 years I've been working mornings and getting up before the sun and, believe me, mornings has it's perks too - like getting off work before everyone else.

What is/was your favorite work shift?

Are you a morning person or a night owl?

...and what I really want to know is how some of you adjust to switching shifts randomly all of the time like nurses and some of those other jobs with rotating schedules. I couldn't handle going back and forth from days to nights every other week.

By the way, May 9th is National Night Shift Workers Day. Hats off the all of the night owls in Missoula working from sundown to sunup, you help make the world go round!
