“We are all shift workers”
If you are a card-carrying shift worker who wakes up in the middle of the night to go to work, returns from work late at night, or stays awake all night, you know how it feels to be living against a primitive, primordial drive to sleep at night and stay awake during the day.
But even if you’re not, I’m sure you can remember a time when you were fighting against your internal clock. The truth is we are all shift workers.
There are times in life when we go through chronic sleep disruption, and for many, those habits linger.
If you pull an all-nighter at school or work, stay up late studying for a test, have a bad night’s sleep, travel across several time zones, stay awake late into the night to tend to a sick relative, or wake up a few times to feed and change a baby, then you too are a shift worker.
A full-time job with ling commutes combined with a regular home routine is like working two shifts and going to bed past midnight.
Even one night out partying can be as disruptive as traveling from one time zone to another; That’s why we call it ‘social jet lag’
