Hawk MMS 0 Posted July 29, 2007 I know why I am not sleeping right now (work). Some of you though seem to be active on this board all day and night Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FastCargo 412 Posted July 29, 2007 I've always been a night owl. The condition is aggravated because I fly for FedEx (overnight freight). Also, even when I'm home, I tend to wake up in the middle of the night...so I usually go downstairs for a bit, get a drink, drop in here, then hit the sack again.

FOTF 0 Posted July 29, 2007 Just pour a pot of coffee down your shorts.....guarantee you won't feel the need to doze off Seriously though....the 12 hour night shift is great. I got my little portable DVD player with the PS2 attached...play a little GTA, maybe a little God of War....next thing I know...it's already 6 in the morn and the sun is coming up....

Hawk MMS 0 Posted July 29, 2007 Oh man. I just went outside to swap the prover over and holy crap. My granddad was right when he said one of the coldest winters he spent was a summer in San Francisco. Cold and windy tonight here in the East bay. That will keep me awake. Yeah the nights are great, i really don't mind. If it is quiet and slow I can read, a little SFP1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Based out of Memphis, currently on the A300/310. If I read your location right, I've been up to your neck of the woods many a time in an A310 and DC-10.
