| 0:00.0 | going on. Oh, not much. Okay, talk to me. Uh, how do you feel about working |
| 0:05.0 | over nights? I loved it when I did it. How long did you do it? I've done it two, two |
| 0:09.3 | separate occasions. I did it once and, well, more than once in radio. Several times in |
| 0:14.3 | radio, I did the overnight shift and then one time I worked at that call center. Oh, |
| 0:18.3 | the call center was my favorite. What were the hours there? Like two over nights? Oh, |
| 0:22.3 | no, it's every night, five nights a week. Okay. And I think I worked from like, you |
| 0:25.6 | know, 11 to six or something. It was great. Okay. So it was nobody called. Nobody's in |
| 0:29.6 | there. There's no manager. Yeah. It's like eight people. Yeah. Part of that too, though, |

| 0:55.4 | gotta go out. I gotta go to work. So it does keep you out of trouble a little bit too. |
| 0:59.5 | Well, this thing that I was reading this morning said that people who, who work |
| 1:02.8 | overnight and have done it for a while, they seem to be true converts, like they get |
| 1:06.4 | to point, and maybe that's just, that's because they stuck with it. And so these are the |
| 1:09.4 | people who like it. But then basically once they've done it for a while, this is what |
| 1:12.6 | they would prefer to do. And they're talking about the benefits. I mean, one of the |
| 1:15.8 | obvious benefits is that a lot of places will say we pay more for you to work. Yeah. |
| 1:19.7 | I got no money because they offered me and I was like, yeah, I'll do it. I think that |
