As I deliberated the prospect of embarking on the night shift journey at Montani, reservations echoed from friends and family. ‘It won’t be healthy for you,’ they cautioned. ‘Your body will deteriorate in the long run,’ or ‘Your sleep cycle will go haywire along with you.’ Admittedly, they raised valid concerns, given the perceived challenges of adjusting one’s sleep schedule. Ironically, my sleep cycle was already unconventional. Opting for the night shift not only allowed me to embrace my unique sleep patterns but also presented an opportunity to be compensated for it. Moreover, it opened the door to a realm of possibilities, enhancing both my physical and mental well-being while cultivating connections with fellow night owls.
