So monday mornings I wake up at 5am, get ready for work and work from 5:45 til 10am, then go back to sleep for a couple hours and prepare to work the evening til 11pm. During the morning, the only time someone is here, is for 2 hours while I’m working. The Office Manager is usually here, but no one else til 9:30, 10am……except maybe some sales people.
Anyway, since I spend the morning by myself hitting stupid buttons, I don’t feel the need to get dressed for work when I’m only going to crawl back into bed later. So I throw on some thermal PJ’s since its always freezing in the control room, brew some coffee, grab an odwalla bar and head to work, waiting for the time my head will hit the pillow again.

Every now and then, someone will come back to production, pop their head in and scare me half to death. They think this is amusing! Me, not so much. But I usually hide in the mornings due to being in PJ’s and only having my hair thrown into a quick messy ponytail….no make up…I’ve also left my good morning attitude back in bed…and frankly I’m grumpy and not expecting visitors…..nor do I want visitors. Then when 10am rolls around I jump in my car, travel the 5 minutes it takes to get me back to my house and before I can even walk thru the door, my eyes start getting heavy and I sink into bed.

Then I go to work and I get the comment, “you looked like crap this morning!”

I say, “Thanx”, while I secretly hope they trip and knock some teeth out in the process.

When will this stupid split shift thing end?!!
