WTF is with your GF? Does she realize what shift you're working?





Sounds pretty selfish and childish from my perspective.

Quoted:


Man I feel your pain.  I worked 15+ yrs 10:00pm-6:30am.  It fucking sucks.  I have been off work for 2+yrs (injured) an my sleep is still fucked up.  I cant sleep at night.  I felt like a vampire, everbody else in the house had a "normal" schedule an I would feel like an asshat when people came over and I was sleeping.  



I just learned to sleep 2 hrs here, and 2 hrs over there and so on.  Good Luck

They're both 17(twins), they won't be getting their license until November(over populated school, couldn't get into drivers ed). I can't blame them for not wanting to drive. I can't get insurance to cover them until they get a license, and no license+no insurance is an $1100 ticket.

Sounds like you need to stop being a mangina and kick your gf to the curb...tell her to get her own breakfast lunch and dinner and find her own ride to work....

So, lemme get this straight.


You're 19.  Your girlfriend is 17.  You (presumably) talk to her about wanting to get your own place––the wisdom of which I won't touch upon.  In order to do so, you discuss needing to take a night job.  IN THE MEANTIME......she decides to get pissy and whiney about you sleeping, keep you from doing so, and then basically grab you by the balls and tell you to drive her around places during the time you should be fucking asleep, and whines at you when you're "out of it"?  And then the sister for some reason has you drive her around, instead of letting you sleep?



Re-examine your priority set, get your fucking head on straight, and join the Martin-Baker club.

Sleep with a fan on. It really cancels out some noise, The constant hum will make you sleep like a Baby.



Your GF needs to start taking care of herself, And needs to show respect that you are working some tough hours.

ummm....these 17 year olds...

Do they have parents that still exist?  Serious question...not a slam.

I finally found a job, it's not great but it's money in the pocket. I'm a night stocker at Safeway. I work 10PM-7AM, which means my sleep schedule is going to be fucked up for the next couple days-weeks while I get used to it. I have to work again tonight at 10:30

Last night was my first day, and I didn't get off till 7:30am, it's a half hour drive home, plus I had to pick up breakfast for the girlfriend. I get to her house 8:30, don't fall asleep till 930 10am. She wakes me up in a fuss at 11:30 saying she has to get to work. She's bitching at me for being half asleep while I'm driving, come to find out she doesn't even have to be at work till 12:30, and she knew about it.

Then I'm elected to take her brister shopping. Long story short I don't get back to sleep until 2PM. Have to wake up again at 4PM to go to girlfriends lunch, Leave her at 4:45pm head back to my grand parent's house.

Now I'm "to tired to fall asleep", lay in bed until 5:30, my grandparents come home. I sleep in their basement, and the upstairs floors squeak really bad. They're making themselves dinner  so they're moving around a lot, the kitchen is also right over where I sleep. So I just say "fuck it, I'll have to rely on 5 hour energy shots and coffee to stay awake tonight". I turn on the lights and start looking for some ear plugs that I vaguely remember having somewhere.  

They call down and ask if they woke me up, I lie to them and say no. They ask me if I want them to leave and I say no again. They don't listen to me and wrap up their dinner(not  ready all the way) and take off. So Now I feel like a major ass hat who just kicked his grandparents out of their own home.

Sorry for the incoherent micro rant. I'm tired frustrated and guilty

I'm going to take advantage of my grandparn'ts generosity now.

I worked either night shift or mids the first 3 years I was in the Navy.

I could always count on:



MS's (shitheads who ran the barracks) coming in to do a health and welfare inspection at 0900, the squadron duty officer coming in between 1200-1500 to do room inspection, the common area maids banging on the doors with vacuum cleaners or wiping down the walls, shithead room mates who worked days coming in at noon for lunch and coming home from work at 1630, getting called into work to explain what happened during the shift (as if the page and a half pass down didn't cover it).



Payback was a bitch though.

why doesnt you girlfriend and her sister have a job?
as far as transportation for them, there is the bus system, a bicycle, or other family members who DO NOT WORK NIGHTS
