Have you ever worked third shift?
by

1 Answer

Answer :

I work the third shift now, twelve hours a night. My last girlfriend pretty much left me because of this, she said I didn’t have enough time for her. Luckily, it wasn’t a serious relationship, so it was a pretty easy breakup. I couldn’t imagine have a serious relationship, but my co-workers seem to do just fine with theirs. Both are married and (as far as I can tell) are happy at home.
