TOP 10 GRAVEYARD SHIFT JOBS
Do you have an inability to sleep at night? Have you ever thought about working the
graveyard shift? I'm sure most of you know what a graveyard shift is, but for those of you who don't, a graveyard shift is a working shift that runs through the early morning hours, typically covering the period between midnight and 8 a.m.
WHERE DID GRAVEYARD SHIFT ORIGINATE FROM?
The phrase dated back to the 19th century, when it was believed that people were accidentally buried while still alive. It's said that caskets were equipped with a bell-ringing device that enabled waking-up "live corpses" (they could notify the burier that they weren't dead to begin with!).
Michael Quinion at World Wide Words said that "no matter how often you've worked it - your skin is clammy, there's sand behind your eyeballs, and the world is creepily silent, like the graveyard."
Now that you have a creepy lesson on graveyard shift, here are your TOP 10 Jobs!
