    Being a morning person is a superpower.

    By the time anyone else gets to work I’m jacked up on caffeine and I’ve gotten 2-3 hours worth of shit done, and the first thing my bosses see when they log in is that I’ve finished all of the morning work requests.

    Awesome.

      Being a night person is a superpower.

      You can work night shifts, get paid more, feel better than during the day, not miss business hours because you’re working at the same time as everyone else, and enjoy the outside without people in better air and no eye pain from the sun.

        Until you’ve been doing it for a few years, and it’s winter, and you only have 6 hours of daylight per day, and you see 0 of them.

        Being both is the real superpower I sleep 5-6 hours and am perky from rise to crash. I love it.

          Care to take some of my hours, lol?

          I need to sleep 10 hours, every night, otherwise I’m actively depriving myself of sleep. I’m not ill, got confirmed that that’s just how it is. A 40 hour work week really wasn’t made for this.

      I’ve noticed I’m naturally a morning person when I’m able to upkeep good work-life balance. I love waking up super early, catching the sunrise, hearing the morning birds, and having a nice, long, calm morning. When the job is too demanding and too stressful, I sleep like shit and wake up in madness, depend too much on coffee, and just feel like shit 80% of the time.

        There is definitely a fine line. I think “morning people” are more volatile and 1 small hiccup can ruin an entire morning and throw them off for the rest of the day. Night people tend to just sleep longer and miss some stuff but overall have no change to routine when something goes wrong.
