    neglect, mostly.
    i don't mind when i have to work it, much cooler. today i might have to work 8 a.m.-10 p.m. though, so that would be a bitch, but i need the hours.

    7p-7a for the past 15 years, so you could say I like it. I get an extra 31% night differential, 41% weekend differential, and 61% differential on holidays.

    Before night shifts I was working six 24 hour shifts a month. Too much time off.
