Two years ago, I said I never wanted to work a job where I had to sit in an office from 9 to 5. But, let me tell you, after working from 4 AM to 12 PM for 2 months, then 5 AM to 1 PM for another 4 months, nine to five is SWEEEEEEEEEET!!!

We switched back on Thursday, though a couple of pollers have to go back to 5 to 1 after the new year (not me, thank God). Man, does it feel good to not feel miserable 24/7.

Congratulations!

Thanks! The thing I forgot to mention in the OP is that I am something of an insomniac, so the whole time I was working 5 to 1, I wasn't going to sleep before 12:30, 1:00 in the morning. That's why I was so miserable.

Been there, done that; not fun! I'm a 'night-owl' so when I have to get up in the early AM....I think power naps, and what I end up doing is watching the clock thinking, "I should be asleep; "Why am I not asleep"; "Gee, I'm gonna be tired".
