No more shift work!

Posted by Fast Freddy on June 18, 2002 at 12:38:35:

After 21 years on the 11 to 7 shift I am on the day shift. How long should/does it takes to acclimate to being on a regular day night schedule. I am finding that I am almost as tired when I get up as when I went to bed. I get plenty of sleep and I get to sleep quickly, but still feel like a lump of lead when I get up in the morning. Any thoughts or comments would be welcomed.

Later Fast Freddy
