I think I'd do better with a night job than a day job.

What times are you designating as 'night'? I work from 5-9 in the evening. Does this count?

Because I hate the sun, I think it would be cool.

Working at night is inhumane. Period. No amount of productivity is worth sacrificing humanity for.

i work from 4 in the afternoon till 1:15 in the morning.. theres good and bad things about it

good -

- you can have a whole day of doing whatever you want and feels like a longer period

- its not hot

- i get an extra $100 ontop of the $700 a week for working night shift

bad -

- dont get to spend time with friends because there at school through the day

- dont get to spend time or talk with girlfriend until weekend

- sometimes its freezing cold especially in winter

- its a really stupid time to be getting home from work

many others but there the main ones at the moment

After working about 2 years on graveyard shifts, I have to say that it is unnatural. the first 3-6 months are hell, getting used to the odd sleep patterns. about 6-9 months in, i felt like i finally got into the groove. I was wrong. after that, and ever since then, i was never able to get used to it. I think people take the silence and peace of night for granted. Also, working graves turned me into the dumbest, meanest, shortest-tempered person i've ever been. It's incredible how sleep affects us.
