My group at work recently switched to a four-day work week, which, aside from having the highly coveted Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday weekend, I like. But it does mean spending 11 hours in the office on each day I work, which can drive one a little stir crazy.
(And it would be a bit more tolerable if not for the presence of one co-worker, who often leads me to fantasize about pro wrestling-style folding chair beatings. But I'm trying not to complain, so I'll save that for a future post.)
But here's what I'm wondering: My boss approached me yesterday and asked if I'd like to switch schedules. (Oh, I generally work from 3 p.m. to 2 a.m. Hooray!) Anyway, I was offered a day shift and a slightly better weekend. Now, I've worked nights for the past seven years, so basically I've had the same sleep schedule since college. So, the idea of actually getting up in the morning is a bit intimidating.
Thus, the question: Do I go to the more normal schedule or use this opportunity to say I'll stay on nights but push for a better weekend?

+1 vote for nights and a better weekend. I hate the mornings.
