After my last nightshift I have found that if i sleep 2-3 hours as soon as I get home I am fine ... I get myself up ... and then go through that next day (and sleep fine that night so I wake up fresh for the next day) ... and I find I fine for getting back into day shifts ... as mine is a rotatign roster as well ... I usually only get 1-1.5 days between a nightshift and then back onto a dayshift stream again ... then 1-2 days off and then back onto nights ... and then the process repeats.

It'd be nice to do a week of nights ... have a few days off ... and then do days again ... but I hardly get a break from it now (as they changed us from 12 to 10 hors ... there's more shifts in the cycle and little down time inbetween.
