Some people work in the morning, some people work at night. Some people work shifts while some work 9 to 5. Some people work on the weekdays, some people work on weekends.
As for me, I'm working Mondays to Fridays, 9am til 5pm.. Weekends are my off days.. One more thing is, I don't really like shift work as it's very tiring. I'm working as Technical support personnel.
So my question to fellow mylotters is:
What is your working pattern like? And also what are you working as?

When I first quit my day job to start my online business I worked every waking hour, night and day, until my heart gave out. That changed my life but I was still alive.
My heart problem had no quick fix like the others that were in the hospital at the same time as myself and they sent me home to either live or die but with lots of meds.
Immediately my life changed and so did my sleeping habits. I no longer stayed up all night. I was not able to stay up past 8pm but I am up every morning before 5am, even without an alarm clock.
I now work from 5am until about noon and then I am done for the day.
I also only work Monday to Friday now and take week ends off to do other things.
Although when the weather is not fit for me to be outside I like to come over to Mylot and waste some time.

I am a homemaker so my schedule varies from day to day. I do some volunteer work at church and at my children's school. I also have a few regular activities that I attend, so each day is a little different from the next. AND..... as a wife and mom, I am never really off duty either. But...... the rewards are great!

I work from 8am until 6 or 7pm usually, but sometimes a bit longer. Thankfully, I don't have to work on weekends. I used to work crazy hours in food service and as a swim instructor, nights, weekends, early mornings, etc, and I kind of liked it, because at the end of my shift I always felt like I had physically worked my body. Now I work in an office and although I still feel tired (brain fried!) at the end of the day, it just doesn't feel quite as good as that all-over body tired I used to get!

I am in a shifting work schedule and that it will change every two days. It start with 2 mornings, 2 nights then 2 afternoons and followed by 2 days off. Basically it's a 6 straight working days then 2 rest days. It's kinda not nice or suited in my preference since I am not a morning person. It is just so hard for me to wake up early in the morning to go for work. I would rather have a long week or months at nights than put me in the morning schedule.

id like the morning shift than the night shift. grrrr i love to sleep so much. i have this experienced working in a callcenter, and im always caught sleeping. LOL
its really different sleeping at night than day time.
and as of now, id prefer working on my own time, not the 15-30 not the 8-5 basis.
id rather work on my own, iam the boss, i own my time,... like doing networking, direct selling, and blogging, or doing mylot. hmmm? right? LOL

I am technician. My working pattern is from Monday to Friday, 6:30 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. We don't have shift at my department. Everyone just coming and going the same time. I also work during the weekend, Friday night and Saturday night. I always need some extra money, rather than staying home idle.

I am working as a Web researcher for a tennis website. My employer is in Virginia USA and I am from the Philippines. Our country is ahead by 12 hours. So when it's morning there, it's evening here. Which makes me work most of the time in the evening.
