Night shifts take toll on students

Becky Wilson, Omaha senior, smiles her way through a 10-hour graveyard shift at Perkins restaurant
Gary Cook, St. Louis senior, goes to work at four in the morning, even on days when he has to go to class at KU
Cook does not mind waking up to go to work, however.
"It is easier for me to get up at three than it would be for me to get up at seven," he said.
Cook is one of many students who cook during their university, is popularly called the 'kitchen boy'.
Demo said that students who worked graveyard shifts should establish a regular bedtime and make sleep a ritual. They were sleeping only when they had the chance.
Cook said he usually slept three or four hours at night before he went to work and took a short nap during the day.
Janine Demo, coordinator of health education at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said students who learned how to eat properly paired catcher jerseys.
Demo said studies also had shown that daylight in general improved peri- and post-treatment
People's bodies naturally like to sleep at night, Demo said.
Travis Berkley, Morrill senior,
works from midnight to 8 a.m. twice a week in the computer operations
department of the Computer Center.
"If I could, I would work during the day," he said.
Berkley said he worked at night because others in the department had worked there longer and had first choice to work during the day.
Money from the job helps him pay rent, so he will continue to work at night until he can change to a daytime shift, he said.
Jill Schwarz, Grinniel graduate student, said she worked at night because she had other commitments during the day.
Schwarz answers the phone at the University Information center from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m.
She said the night shift gave her a chance to relax because it was a change of pace from school and her social-welfare internship.
Schwarz said that she kept busy during her shift because the center received many calls at night. She and her team calls in an hour on one Friday night.
For others, however, working at night is not as pleasant.
Angela Moore, Council Grove junior, bussed and waited tables at a local restaurant.
graveyard shift.
She quit in the middle of October because she was not able to work the job.
"I liked the job, but I didn't like this shift," Moore said.
She said the whole day after she worked a graveyard shift was wasted because she was physically exhausted.
Moore said she also was tired of dealing with rude, drunk people who would come to the restaurant after the bars closed.
"You start to hate people," she said. Moore said graveyard shifts at restaurants were different than other types of jobs because the employees had to deal with many people and anyone who came in.
