  • I had that thought on a few occasions, I prefer the duracell, as they really make the rabbits go, and the silver calcium is just a tad too heavy too lug around... I find that at least with duracell,

Its not easy but I get paid to do it every 3 weeks for 4 nights; fifth night is optional but the car mods usually cause me to attend that one,

Easy when your kept busy working at something but break times are difficult on nights because you then begin to think your tired,

Sleeping from 13:00 -21:40

Monster energy one each nite at 22:35 helps kick start it.

Its medically proven women cope better with lack of sleep

Hardcore Lenny :ph34r: I often work until 1am but couldn't handle nights.

I thought that too mate but its handy finishing a week of 7-3 on a Friday then not back in until 11pm Monday night,

Week goes quicker because its Tuesday in one hour,

Usually after a Friday night I try to stay awake as long as possible to get back in to sleeping at night, every morning when I drive home that's me done, I wouldn't drive after that, especially now I could blank out sleep Paul McKenna style anytime :lol: boom..

It is quite difficult though,

In my opinion to best survive a week of nights you need to switch off to the world commit to nothing and devote the week to purely work and sleep, lots of sleep because there's that 8 hours of nite you know you can't under any circumstances sleep,

Then when in work keep as busy as possible I feel a boost of energy by convincing myself every hour of nights is 6am

Its almost getting bright,

This helps prevent being tired, aswell as thinking of mods for the car keeps the brain busy
