# The night shift week

URL: https://gocutline.com/templates/night-shift-week/

A weekly schedule for night workers: shifts through the night, sleep from 08:00 as a protected block, a main meal and training in the afternoon, and time with others before work.

## Why it works
- **Sleep is the one block you protect above all.**
- **Fixed meal times** keep your energy up through the night.
- **Time with people** in the early evening stops the isolation that wears night workers down.

## Make it yours
- Shifts that start at 22:00? Move everything two hours earlier.
- Keep your days off close to the same rhythm, if you can.

Same time, same length, dark room. Block it like work, and tell the people you live with.
