I worked as a Night Auditor for 3 years where I taught myself web development and landed my first tech job at a startup. Luckily the meetings were late afternoon which is a little after I wake up.

I'd take care of ghe code during the night/morning, review it before the meeting, meet, rinse and repeat.

Fortunately/unfortunately depending on how you look at it, the startup got to MVP, but also ran out of money. Now I'll be looking for work again, but my sleep schedule is still vampire time.

I'm considering looking for remote work on the other side of the pond. I'm in the US. Other than that I guess I have to go through the extremely painful process of changing my sleep habits.

You don't want to live in the US and work for non-US salaries... trust me.

Yeah. I've heard as much. Looks like I'm gonna have to change my sleep schedule sooner than later, and hate my life.
