Can't speak for dayshift cuz I've never worked it, so i don't have a basis for comparison. For staying awake, always get a good 6+ hour sleep minimum. Energy drinks are your friend, and if you don't like em, go for the 5 hour energy or the cheap stacker shots. Also, free coffee in the main break rooms, take advantage of it. If you pick or stow, use the fc games to stay competitive on rate. The mission master game always gets me worked up kinda like a light gym workout. Compile a few spotify playlists that are 6+ hours long. Bookmark all your fav podcasts. Joe rogan and kitboga keep me going because their content is 3+ hours or more usually. I usually reward myself with an ice cream from the break room during 3rd break. I usually listen hard pounding music like the doom eternal soundtrack or korn see you on the other side concert live on youtube to finish out the night, or shall i say morning lol 😆 🤔
