Morning shows, then the weekend is here...

I am working Monday thru Thursdays or Wednesdays this month with 6:00 AM shows.

I get up an hour before my show, get to the airport at 5:45 AM because I HATE being rushed doing the preflight inspections.

Anywho, my body is used to getting up at 5:00 AM. The weekend is here and I find myself laying in bed at 6:30 AM wide awake, ready to take on the world.

Quite annoying, that 'sleeping in' is 7:00 AM :(
 
Well I wish I had that problem! When I am home I generally wake up at around 10 AM on my days off after going to sleep around mid night. I hate early shows, especially in the NE in the Sping/Fall/Winter. Way too cold.
 
You could use the time to start studying for the CA Q position! ;)

I can't remember the last time I got to sleep in. Even on weekends the alarm goes off early.
 
Hey Seggy a buddy of mine works for you guys down in IAH. He told me that there are hardly no overnights. Is that the norm for the company, or is it just IAH based guys?
 
At IAH there are overnights. The other bases around the systems are outstationed based so we are 'home' everynight.

Mind you 'home' is a crashpad with seven other guys. Who do you work for?
 
seggy is tired? im sorry bud. i got up around 130 this afternoon. i didnt have a tough time trying to sleep in. :)

Wait you young man when we are in Florence and I will be downing them like a champ, while you are 'pacing' yourself ;)

College kids these days jeez.

WAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!! :)


The only time I get to sleep in is on overnights with a late show time. My kid has me up at 6:30 or 7 every day. Is it sad that I sometimes look forward to a 1 PM show time and a Hampton Inn bed?
 
I've had the early show times as well lately. 3:15AM wakeup today, Chicago time. Just like yesterday, and the day before. When I'm home, I'm up at 7:00AM every single day. Sleeping in for me is a 9:00AM wakeup... even after being up until 2:00AM!
 
Yup my last few trips have been 3:45a wake ups in Chicago. Then on my days off I stay up but still end up waking up at 6 or 7am, because I 'sleep in'.
