What is your question? :)

How to spend time with family without sleeping till time to go in.

Wish I had better advice than... it's going to be awfully hard to spend time

with anyone/do anything other than sleep, with a schedule like that. That's

brutal. Seriously. I mean, if it were me, and I were only working 2pm to

10pm, then I would likely only be seeing people on my days off, because it's

terrible trying to have a life with that schedule, but I would at least have a

couple of days/evenings off.

If I only worked 10pm to 6am, I'd go home after work, sleep, then

be able to visit with family or friends in the evenings, before

work.

6pm to 6am... hopefully I'd only be doing this three days

a week, with my days close together, and that way I can

sleep the first day off, then have a couple of full days

to hang out with friends and family and do whatever.

But you... you are all over the place with your schedule and

you just aren't going to be able to have a life with that.

So, is there not any way you can go to working only

2-10, 10-6, 6-6, or whatever??
