You know, like "always split on 18," or "having kids is the most rewarding thing you can do in life."

What's that one bit of advice you got from a trusted friend that you know deep, deep down would just ruin your thing?

Hoping to feel rested, and clearly I don't since I didn't include all the words!

You been checked for sleep apnea?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I have sleep apnea and a breathing machine, which helps, but doesn't solve the issue that trying to adjust my sleep schedule to the normal 8-5 routine on a daily basis results in poor sleep outcomes for me.

My problem is that falling asleep earlier results in poor sleep, if I can even fall asleep.

Think of it as the reverse of someone who always rises early and can't sleep in or gets terrible sleep when they stay up too late.

I am empathic to your situation. Good luck getting into your rhythm!

The only solution is to get a job that isn't 8-5, but finding one that pays the 8-5 rate is really difficult.

Or society treating late risers the same as early risers instead of as second class citizens.

This is actually a major reason I'm glad to work in software. The culture in the industry usually tends not to care about specific working hours as much, as long as you're around consistently and do good work.
