have you ever been so deep in work that you feel as if there's no end? i'm sorry for ranting but i just got home and am feeling very very (one more) very exhausted. it's not that i don't like the job, it's just that the work is piling on everyday. i've recently had no sense of relief or satisfaction at the end of the day as i've accomplished so little (or i feel as if it's little).
what is my job anyway? to anyone not familiar with this business, i am one of the "night critters"...i work at a call center and have been for the past 4 years. people may ask if i'm not getting sick and tired of working nights -- welp, people will be surprised at this but i actually like the schedule. it keeps me away from the traffic and the heat of the sun.i am actually sleepier when i work during the day (this is based on training schedules where it's on regular working hours - am to pm). not to mention, the pay is much bigger with the night differential. i'm a supervisor and have been handling teams of 12 - 20 for almost 3 years. what i love about handling people? helping them become better people -- not just at work but also how they view and take life. and seeing that light switch in their eyes when they realize they've done a good job and that they can actually do a good job. you see, most people who work in a call center as agents are what you call "meantime" people... 70-80% of the agents work there because they haven't figured out or are in the process of getting what they want to do for the rest of their lives. so some don't care much and some just come in for the sake of getting a job. i'm saddened by those people because they end up wasting their life away -- afraid to take risks, some even afraid to have a goal and aim at career growth. i try as much as possible to help them realize their goals. and when they do, i feel like a million bucks.
don't get me wrong. this is only my 'day' or shall we say 'night' job... my goal in life? to start a clothing line and eventually, be a beach bum. LOL. as of now, i'm working my ass off to save enough money for those.

About your work, I really think night shift is better because less traffic, no heat, and it's the best time to drink coffee. Hehe!

It sounds like you are really good at your job. I guess we are all some times exhausted from the daily grind. Sometimes I'm so tired that I don't even want to blog anymore. Then I'm really worried :-)
