Oh, you start at 6 am. I once had a job at a power plant, we worked in three shifts,

06 am --> 02 pm
02 pm --> 10 pm
10 pm --> 06 am

The night shift was my favorite.

Me too. I used to work the 11pm to 7am shift. I loved it. Hardly any people to deal with, and the few fellow co-workers on the shift with me were generally nuts too.

Suited me down to the ground. 8)

*exceptionally loud belch*

Sorry. Just couldn't help it. It's the pineapple juice that works havoc in my digestive tract. It's more suited to take in liquids that are sold in bright glass bottles. Ask Sylkat.

Nice touch having the belch in yellow to match the pineapple Krabo.

Otherwise gross. I'm just about to have my breakfast you know. :roll:

I know, right? I used to work the graveyard shift in the lab back when I was a scientist. It was great! I was a lot more productive and efficient being (mostly) by myself. Most nights I could also turn up the radio up really loud, although the cleaners once caught me singing into the microscope. :lol: That said, scientific research is a team effort, and I spent a lot of time with co-workers during the day – made me nervous no end.

Speaking of pineapples, one researcher in my lab was studying pineapple enzymes for a couple of months. I always loved it when he was in the lab, because the whole room ended up smelling of pineapples, my favourite fruit. :)

Back in the days when I lived in the UK, I used to do my supermarket shopping in the middle of the night too.

I was telling my friend about it, and how it did seem to be all the weirdo's who shopped at that time. She just gave me a meaningful look. 8)

Hey Murihiku. :D
Studying pineapples? Cool.

If one swallows a dozen belches, where does the energy go which would otherwise be released?
