For 2nd shift workers, how do you feel this shift affects your life?

Question:

I feel I miss a lot of life on this shift, been doing it 20 yrs.

Answers:
Second shift really isn't that bad - but only after doing THIRD shift for the past three years!

I am a real night owl - so waking up at 4:30am, so that I can be into work for 7:00am is just hell! My hours are 4:00pm to 12:30am - and I usually end up going to sleep aroud 4/5:00am.

Then again, it's usually at least 2:00am or 3:00am before I get to sleep any other time ;);)

I guess I'm lucky this way - I don't have to worry about kids and family life right now ;);););)
