My girlfriend started working nights at the hospital.
- When she passed her nurse’s exam, she wanted to immediately start working.
I understood exactly why, because the pay was $10 an hour more than it was for the job that she was doing. Unfortunately, the only position at the hospital was on night shift. My girlfriend started working nights about 2 months ago and it has been really rough on her. She does not sleep very well when the sun is out. Even though we have shades on the windows and dark curtains, she still lies awake in the morning for a while. I work as an HVAC repair specialist for a commercial and residential company. As an HVAC repair specialist, my jobs will vary from day to day. I might have an air conditioner repair in the morning or a boiler estimate in the afternoon. I don’t usually finish until after 4:00 and sometimes it’s even later than that. On Fridays I don’t usually finish until 8:00 or 9:00. Last Friday was my girlfriend and eyes anniversary and I really wanted to have dinner with her before she went to work. I convinced my boss to let me leave a couple of hours early so my girlfriend and I could get dinner before she went to work. We went to one of our favorite dive bars for wings and fries and watched part of the game. When it was time for my girl to go to work, I stayed to finish watching the rest of the game with my buddies.
