What is the better shift? Would you rather work night shift or day shift? Curious :)

Hi, just a little curious on which shift is most desired.. Night shift or Day shift? And Why?

After working nights the majority of the last 2 decades and now recently switched to days I must say shift preference is a personal decision. I loved everything about noc shift except the hours and was sick and tired of being chronically exhausted despite sleeping 7-8 hrs between noc shifts. Feeling like total crap even on my days off was not worth the shift differentials to me.

The only way to find your niche OP is to try it, each shift has it's pros and cons.

The only plus to working days is getting out of there early. With that said, I prefer evening shift. My coworkers are savvy to teamwork and we have fun...yes, I said the F word.
