I love your blog! Your layout is quite impressive too. <br /><br />It sounds to me like you already have a hard enough job to begin with! I haven't had to stare at anyone, but I've had to work shifts from 9am-midnight. Now THAT was hard. I was the manager of a Blockbuster (remember when those existed?) and had to fill in when people called in sick.<br /><br />The fried chicken recipe you have below looks deeelicious! <br /><br />Can't wait to read more from you! :)<br /><br />Alex[andra]<br />letlifebelikemusic.blogspot.caAlex[andra]https://www.blogger.com/profile/13459788008954202823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5859990773542384290.post-59984576226029267332013-03-13T10:43:40.367-06:002013-03-13T10:43:40.367-06:00I honestly couldn't do this.

I can't believe they assign a person for that; although it makes sense. I would hate if overnights were my normal schedule. I don't think I can do it.Cece @Mahogany Drivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11851435478630045969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5859990773542384290.post-69004932270809654422013-03-13T06:42:59.886-06:002013-03-13T06:42:59.886-06:00I could never work the night shift!

Granted, I have never had to stare at anyone :) But working in a downtown DC hotel on the weekend on an over night shift, I feel your pain! Lots of drunk crazy people! My shift would usually be 11pm to 8am. I'm so glad those days are behind me! <br /><br />*erica*<br />LookingtotheStars.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03039260238987821192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5859990773542384290.post-5881899130794524072013-03-13T06:04:59.029-06:002013-03-13T06:04:59.029-06:00I have worked such a shift before and yes it defin...I have worked such a shift before and yes it definitely does take something out of you!

I loved being able to show them support and hopefully be a better role model than what they were used to. That being said, I'm sure I would have definitely fallen asleep if I had to watch someone else sleep.
