I would like to give it up for doctor's and nurses that work 12 hour shifts regularly. Not only is their jobs physically draining but they are also mentally stressful, and these men and women deserve the paycheck they work for! I say this because I recently picked up a Saturday night shift. Making my hours 10:30- 10:30. I can not compare waitressing to doctoring and make a solid case, at least not now without thinking in through. But anyways.... on Saturday I had the weirdest dream....
I was exhausted, but like any one else before I went to bed I had to check facebook// go online. I successfully had five minute conversations with Kaitlin and Patryck before I fell asleep mid sentence. More like, passed out. The problem was my lap top (which has a history of overheating) was on my legs. So about an hour later I start dreaming I'm on fire and that my leg has been burnt so bad. I jump up realize it's my laptop and immediately try to pull my pants off, in my fog I was convinced that my leg was still burnt to a crisp.
But after working 12 hours my feet were not moving nearly as fast as my mind wanted them to and my flailing caused me to fall all over the place. I gave up (apparently) and went back to bed. Waking up Sunday morning with my pants on and my lap top on the far corner of my bed under pillows. I guess I successfully put out the fire.
