Blowing Off My Friends


Posted by SpyralSpyder on March 14, 2002 at 06:02:12:

Hi, I'm a 22yr old 3rd shifter. I work 3rd shift at a BP gas station/convenience store. My problem is that I keep getting off work at 6 am, then I cant get back to sleep until 12 pm then on my days off I end up blowing off plans when people call me at 6 pm, I answer the phone all right but second I hang up I end up dropping back off to sleep. How can I get myself revved down faster at 6 am,... Im always too awake when I get off of work.
