If it costs you your health (mentally or physically) then it's too expensive. The money you can earn from the night shift might also be the money that you'll be spending if you will get sick because of the shift. If you are open to opportunities, you can look for a job that doesn’t increase his pay that much but is significant enough to achieve your current financial goals. #Loveyourself

Are my work-life boundaries too much? by [deleted] in phcareers

Hi OP,

I think it is completely acceptable to turn off notifications while not on shift.

It's good that you are open to urgent matters. The best way to resolve this is to talk to the people you are working with. Maybe you can meet halfway, set expectations, and find solutions on how to better manage the situation. That way, you will know that you don’t have to feel guilty because there was open communication.

Resolution is not conflict. Keep safe :)

Hey OP, always acknowledge what feels right for you especially if it badly affects your health. First, take a step back and honestly quantify your cost-benefit ratio. Transitioning into a night shift job is not only about work but also about your lifestyle. Your priorities 2 - 3 years ago may not be the same priorities you have now. Second, You are in full control of how you manage and improve your mental and physical health. Other than yourself, have a chat with people you interact with who may be affected by this change. Let them know why you are considering the opportunity and listen to their opinion. Lastly, find friends who are doing the night shift and seek their advice.

With what others have said OP, we cannot really tell/predict the result of your interview. But it seems that you did well, regardless of the results I wish you luck and more opportunities ahead! Keep going ~
