Day Shifts - Day 3
Well, I'm on the third day of my day shifts, and I'm still enjoying myself. I like going to bed when the sun just sets and getting up just after it rises. It's a nice and refreshing change as apposed to my previous schedules :) I must admit, the workplace is far different during a day shift than a night shift. There's a higher level of professionalism, and to be honest, I fit right in.
I don't feel the jealousy or resentment I did when I was on night shift. Then again, that's more likely because most of the people on the night shift, well at least in this company, are in the lower end of the spectrum. If you seem a little confused, I'll explain. The company I work for is stats based. Meaning you preform well, you get to pick a good shift. Now, day shifts here are the desired and treasured shifts, so in order to get one, you better do a good job. If you don't well, chances are you'll end up on an evening or night shift.
So with all that said, and coming full circle on my explanation, the people that preform well and work hard tend to have day shifts and the people who don't preform, bitch and complain about those who do, tend to work night shifts. Naturally there are some exceptions, but for the most part, that's how it goes. In all honesty, I love it :) Now that I'm on day shifts I get to work with people who have the same attitudes towards work that I do, and I can't say how much better that is than working with a bunch of bitchy complainers not willing to put forth the effort to get what they want, or at least bitch about wanting.
Anyway, moving along. I've started getting back on track already with my exercise and diet. Last night after I got off work, I stopped at the grocery store, picked up some salad fixings, baby spinach, mushrooms, onions, feta cheese and dressing, went home and worked out for an hour, 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of weights, then made myself a lovely salad for dinner and relaxed for the rest of the evening. I can sooo get used to this :) Speaking of working out, I am not as out of shape as I thought I was, however I am out of shape, and it was time I got my butt in gear and did something about it :)
Well, that's all for now, 'till next time :)
