Working all nights is depressing as hell. You get higher pay for doing that in Alaska.

But here in Louisiana, and honestly, all the other 49 states, you don't get the pay bump.


Even though the same mental processes come into play.


I'm just saying: it sucks spending the majority of your waking hours during the night.

Although someone has to do it.

That would take more getting used to than anything for me.

I've been offered graveyard shift in the past in Florida, Cali and Arizona when I was younger and all 3 places came with a decent bump in pay if I had accepted the job. It was actually enough bump in pay that I thought about it really LONG AND HARD ( ) in Louisiana and Arizona, but didn't accept those. However, I have for the past year here in Cali. The money was just so much better that I figured I'd do it for a year or 2 out here then switch back to normal hours. I don't have kids though so it's a lot easier of a decision for me, although I regret it a lot because these hours just fricking suck.

Anyways, I said all that really just to say your random arse OP is full of shite. You're probably just an idiot or a shitty person/employee so they don't offer it to you.

In most places I’ve worked ER doctors/nurses who work nights get a pay bump.

Plant workers get more for night shift. At least the ones who work for the plant do.

“Gonna be a long night
It's gonna be all right
On the nightshift
Oh you found another home
I know you're not alone
On the nightshift”

additional .50 cents an hour here.
Doesn't sound like much, but adds up.

I would switch to all night shifts in a heartbeat. 10 to 8 is perfect. I get to help put the kids to bed, sleep while they are in school, and can actually do stuff with them when they get out of school. 9 to 7 is shite.
