Because that would be weird.
The Inmates are running the asylum? I tell everybody that when I explain the difference between day shift workers and night shift workers.
As a night shift worker, I am paranoid as to exactly what you mean with the above statement. But fairly sure I agree.
I’m sure you agree but to explain, having worked both, day shift workers are little bit uptight generally because all the big wig bosses are in so there isn’t much room for slacking off which that is the case too for night shifts. However night shifts in any work setting are a little bit more laid back because there isn’t big bosses taking glances all the time. Hence why I say the the difference between day shift and night shift is that inmates run the asylum at night. Usually the supervisor at night is also a bit more laid back than the day guy is.
Personally as much as I don’t mind 1st shifts, 2nd shifts are little bit nicer IMO.
Okay.
My point of view is that the inmates, the crazy people who have no true understanding of what they’re doing or what’s going on, are in charge. Aka, the day shift, and all the clueless managers who are baffled why they aren’t getting feedback from the night crew at the 3pm meeting.
For those unfamiliar, to gain a better understanding of a Night Crew viewpoint, swap ‘am’ and ‘pm’. Would you attend a meeting at 3am, or skip it? If you did go, how attentive and productive do you think you’d be?
