    unless you've worked night shifts you don't realise how tired you can be, especially when the pattern changes weekly - nights, lates, earlies.

    I use to do 22:00 to 06:00, after shift I drove my girlfriend to work, not far about 10 min drive, I was almost asleep at the wheel.

    despite sleeping from 08:00 until 16:00 - you still feel like sh*t afterwards, almost like you've not slept
