@cmconseils I think this is because a lot of morning people truly believe that if you donโ€™t get up with the sun you are lazy even if you worked all night long at your job. Itโ€™s really bizarre, I thought as a society we were growing out of that weird idea that the only real work takes place Monday through Friday from 9 to 5

@maggiejk @cmconseils I was called lazy so many times for sleeping until noon despite working as late as 3 or 4am at that time. Ignoring that I need to eat a meal, shower, and simply wind down from the work "day," getting up at noon still meant I was sleep deprived because I was often unable to sleep until 6am or so.

But I was the problem, because I dared take a job in a field I wanted to make a career out of, and that job required late shifts.

The career never happened, in part because I never got enough sleep and could not perform at my peak while at work.

I think the left image is missing the war movie with techno music soundtrack, at 11.

@cmconseils this is a lie! As a morning person whoโ€™s married to a night person, mornings are my time to play video games with headphones so I donโ€™t get interrupted!

@cmconseils IDK which night people you know, but the ones in my life have often decided that 11pm is a good time to vacuum.

@cmconseils My partner and I work a 9:30AM-6PM schedule from home, so usually aren't up until about 9 or 915AM. The construction next door, literally 10 feet from our bedroom, sharing a wall with the house, starts as early as 7...

@cmconseils that's the way of life on this world, they make noise when you sleep, you make noise when they have theirs, simple as that. ๐Ÿ˜

@cmconseils as a morning person in a house full of nine people that has not been my experience.

Jima :Compromise_bi_flag:

@cmconseils @controlc My wife's grandmother had a house rule for her, when she lived with her, growing up: she would try to avoid waking her up before noon. After noon, all bets were off โ€” if a noisy thing has to happen, it's going to happen.

We've carried that tradition through to our kids.

@cmconseils Mom texted me at 8am. She knows I work evening shift and sleep until 10am, but she texted anyway. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

(No, it was neither an emergency, nor particularly time sensitive. :neofox_angry: )

@cmconseils As a night person it always great to treat all as white noise and just pass out to sleep deeply if short periods of time ๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿ˜… it's great to have kids play under the bedroom windows .. easier to fall asleep ...๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†

@cmconseils This is SO true...

I'm a night person who used to work as a teacher's aide and had to be up in the middle of the night to go to work. (When school starts at 7am, and it won't be dawn for another 2 hours, you're starting school in the middle of the night.) I frequently went to work without having slept the night before and dropped dead the moment I got home.

I am alive once again and the world. Must. Know.

@cmconseils used to be a night person, worked late, doing laundry at 11 pm while SO was a morning person. Somehow through the years, total role reversal for both. Itโ€™s quite hard to try to quietly clear a dishwasher at 6 am. Just sayin.
