    At least you can grab fast food or order out.

    Can you order some thing in? Couple places in Brighton may be able to hook you up. If we still lived in Brighton we would cover you.

    i've done those too, the 1800-0630 was brutal, my days off i'd revert to waking up at 8am and that would screw me up for the next 1800-0630. we rotated a month of days then a month of nights. i would stay up til 2 or 3 am during the off days on night month but that didn't really help either.

    We rotated every week, different shift and different days off every week.

    I wish..... I could order in but I'm trying to cut back on spending hard... To that point, I emptied my checking account and have only cash... Well, said cash is at home and not with me.

    I think I have 2 $1 bills in my car and about $4 in change in a cup....

    So yeah... I'm SOL until lunch time at about 0030 tonight.....
