Record is 23 straight days of full-time on 3rd-shift while attending college full-time for 8 hours during the day. Then I got a single night off and did another 16-20 in a row. I'd get one night off a month, maybe a couple of lucky times I got two. I was the only person they had in that position, night auditor at a hotel.

Averaged 10 hours of sleep a week during college...completely serious.

Anyone beating that?

We have one computer operator that only works nights in my office and he seems like an odd duck. Wears a winter coat all year long, along with this average Joe khakis and dress shirt he rocks these crazy ass biker boots that would freak out Michael Myers.

Guilty most likely.


Actually, except for not being able to sleep, it was the perfect job for a college student. I'd have PLENTY of time to do all of my studying, school work and papers at work. Only the beginning and end of the shifts were busy and had work. The auditing part took me an hour, then there were just a few checkins at the beginning and checkouts at the end. In between, there was dead time, everyone was asleep. Plenty of crazy people and incidents to keep it fun too and I started drinking coffee at that job. Unlimited coffee. All night.
