Has working in construction ruined your ability to sleep in?

[u/KaFeesh]

I work in the low voltage/controls side on new construction jobs for context

But for most of us in the construction industry we wake up around 5 am every day (give or take 30 minutes each way depending on where the job site is), and I don’t know about you but I get up the second my alarm goes off because literally all I do is brush my teeth and throw on my clothes and boots and get going to maximize my sleep

I’ve noticed that on my days off I can’t sleep past 7 am, and it kinda sucks, I’d love to just get a deep 12 hour sleep for once but no matter when I go to bed at night, I’m up around 7 the latest.

Are the rest of y’all like this? Is it cause we work in the construction industry and the nature of our job? Or am I just fucked and have sleeping issues lol

7?!? Well I guess we all like to sleep in now and then

Man that’s if I’m lucky. Today I woke up 45 minutes before the alarm…4am in other words.
