Are you one of those damn night people complaining about us morning people getting on with stuff in the limited time window we have?

[–] Johanno@feddit.org 0 points 3 months ago (2 children)

When I am doing stuff at night I try to be as quiet as possible. The morning people could follow this until 11 am.

Depending on location, it's too freaking hot to be doing yard work anytime past 11 in the summer months. 9 - 11am is usually when I get my shit done.

Then again, with my neighbors have a similar work schedule to me, so I guess I'm not bothering anyone.

But we won’t because 11am is unreasonable. That’s a third of the day wasted.

You’re not an owl. Go to bed earlier.

A lot of us work at night. My bed time is 8am. Why exactly do you deserve sleep more than I do just because I'm on a different equally necessary schedule?

[–] Zip2@feddit.uk 0 points 2 months ago

I’m not suggesting anyone is any more worthy of sleep than anyone else, and yes working a night shift does put you at a massive disadvantage. My wife worked night shifts for a few years, so yeah, I know.

What I am saying is that (and this is purely a guess) ~90% of the world are awake during daylight hours, and you just can’t expect them to put a hold on everything.

Personally I try not to do anything outdoors until 9am at the weekend, not because my neighbours work nights, or are night owls, or whatever. Just because I live near people. But at the same time I have kids and things to do.

But anyone being disruptive in a neighbourhood between 10pm and 8am (let’s say 9am at the weekend) should be punishable by death. And my country doesn’t even have capital punishment.

Exactly! All those hospital workers on the night shift can go without sleep.

Hospital workers aren’t the ones making noise late into the night and expecting everyone else to be quiet in the morning so they can have a lie in though, are they?
