How do you spend your first day off?

I usually sleep for 16+ hours straight. I work 4 or 5 in a row, usually.

Specializes in Oncology.

Sleep in (no alarm = amazing), exercise, tidy up the house, and get some sunshine.

Specializes in NICU, ICU, PICU, Academia.

Sleeping for 12 hours. A little mindless TV. Order a pizza. Go back to bed.

I work nights at the moment, and I do not consider myself a night person at all. I typically sleep about 5 or 6 hours, wake up, eat dinner, spend some time with my boyfriend, and go back to bed. If I have 1 night off, it completely messes up my schedule. I hate it.

Specializes in Registered Nurse.

In decompress mode.

Are you referring to days or night shift?

Specializes in Hospice.

Shoot I feel more tired on my days off thanI do when I work. Between work and school I have little free time so we maximize our time together and so much that has to be done in that little bit of time.
