Jonathan B ✈️🪄👨🏻‍💻<p>Shift work is the worst for having motivation to do stuff outside work (exercise, gardening, hobbies etc) as you can’t set a regular time to do things as your schedule never aligns with anyone else’s. </p><p>I have so many projects and things I’d like to do but am always putting things off as I know I will never find the time to be able to complete them. </p><p>Any tips on organisation and staving off procrastination for shift workers?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/shiftWork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shiftWork</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/procrastination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>procrastination</span></a></p>

Willa :v_trans: :v_bi:<p>Two weeks from today I start my first overnight shift at the hospital.

I'll be working Friday through Sunday, 7 PM to 7 AM the next morning each day. When should I sleep?

Dance Gran!perch.<br> <br> There wasn’t any point going home between my night shifts this week. Too far, too loud, too distracting for W and the baby. <br> <br> Staying inside the windowless, stuffy warehouse station for three days was depressing. <br> <br> I packed up my tarp and spent the days sleeping locally. <br> <br> First I slept beside the interchange of the Hume Freeway and M80. Dozing in a snake-y field, I thought hard about the sounds. Intensity wise, birdsong was around a 60% and the traffic about 35%. The traffic was mostly consistent, a white noise under grass rustling, tarp flapping, minor birds yapping. <br> <br> The next day I slept on the Edgars Road freeway off-ramp. Here I thought about fear, the thing that kept waking me up from micronapping. The closer I got to sleep, the more my imagination woke up. What if an off lead dog found me? What would I say to the owner? What if it bit me? I think, if a council worker finds me, I should smile as they walk over. Could I lie to the police, maybe I should practice now. Those were the kinds of thing that made me open my eyes, and check for anyone approaching. With practice I started to calm myself; if someone found me and wanted to talk, they’d wake me up then. No point worrying any sooner. <br> <br> It’s ironic that freeways, so inhuman, built for machines, built for transient visitors, gone in a split second, are the easiest places to camp. To lie under a tree in private, to get sniffly from grass seed, to be still and really see what suburban birds are up to. Because these places are a repellant.<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/work?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#work</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/cycling?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cycling</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/camping?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#camping</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/backpacking?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#backpacking</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ultralight?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ultralight</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/commute?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#commute</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/shiftwork?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#shiftwork</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bikes?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bikes</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/melbourne?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#melbourne</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/stealthcamping?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stealthcamping</a>
