Speaking from experience, I found I got used to working the backshift. I worked at a local grocery store stocking the shelves, ordering stock, and unloading trucks for like 9 bucks an hour. The hours varied from 10-6, 11-7, or 12-8.

I used to treat my working nights like I was getting off work and it's broad daylight. So I would run errands, hang out, do whatever for a few hours...like til noon or 1 pm. Then I would sleep til about 8, do my 3 s'es, and then go to work.

You get used to it quickly.

Thank god i didnt have to stay at my job for my full shift tonight. This job is well, its both good and bad. What my job consist of is waiting for these car repair booklets to get printed off. Then i seperate them, slide them down this machine that compresses them, then i have to put some stretch tie into a feeder and the machine wraps up the booklets and then i stack them. Now, this is easy, dont get me wrong. But the bad thing is waiting to do that. I mean we waited for 45 minutes at least before we did anything. And im the type of person that likes to be busy when i work, i hate just sitting there and not doing anything (although i am getting paid to do nothing) its just the way i am.

But talk about a job you have to get stoned to enjoy. Maybe thats why it sucked so bad tonight beacause i didnt smoke on my way there because i thought i might have to pay attention or maybe take a drug test when i got there. But these people that im working with could care less if you smoke. But i will def. have to smoke in order to pass the time. i was only there for 3 hours and it felt like a lifetime.

My first job was at KFC (kentucky fried chicken) and i started out cooking and working in the kitchen. Talk about a shit job. Sit there and bread chicken, then cook at and inbetween wash dishes and stock things. It really sucked at night because we had to clean all the fryers, wash all the dishes, marinate chickent strips, mop floors and other bitch work.

Then i got moved to the front of the store which was better. Sometimes i would do the buffet all night, other times i would take orders, and then sometimes i would just package the orders.

But when i started i was making 5.50 per hour and before i quit i was making 5.90 per hour. But like i said, to much bullshit to put up with for what little money you make.

BUT, you get free/discounted food. And for a stoner, this could proove to be very, very good.
Bro, NOWHERE wants to fucking hire atm. Nowhere is hiring, More then anything people are gettin layed off. And i need a cash flow bro.
no. i dont :lol:

got a job interview for tesco's tomorrow... hopefully that'll be ok...
