Working Nights

Just want to quickly record this, for reference in case I get asked again any time soon.

Working nights ruins my life. It is like living with perpetual jet-lag and very limited social interactivity.

Most importantly, I am not there for my wife when she needs me. And more than this, I'm not available to spend time with my friends, I eat badly, I get bored and frustrated, I lose touch with news and current events, I find it difficult to keep on top of looking after the house, doing the laundry and other things, my skin turns to shit, I get dark circles under the eyes, I never get to the cinema...

It might be easy money but, from this point forward, working nights are an absolute no-no.
