Because I don't have to go to the office or be online at office hours, I can make my schedule whatever I want to. Since maybe 2-3 years ago I've stopped forcing myself to wake up when I want to sleep or go to sleep when I don't want to. This resulted in an interesting schedule: I basically shift on average 30-60 minutes forward each day, making a full cycle in a month or so. When I need to adjust to some forecoming event, I shift more rapidly - 2-3 hours a day. So this is how I live: 2 weeks a month I work at night and other 2 weeks during the day. It's fucked up, but there are so many advantages to that, the most obvious of which is that it makes your life a bit different (important for an introverted programmer who spends a lot of time working). And, needless to say, I rarely have a substantial sleep debt and feel tired during the day. However, I sometimes wish I could control my shifts and maybe hold on to the "wake up in the early morning" thing a bit longer, I love mornings.
I'm curious if anyone else does this, I would love to talk to this person.
