Ladies, has anyone worked as a cleaner at night? How tough is it? Due to circumstances, I need money…

The body needs to rest and recover at night so mom has energy.

If it's for about four hours, then it's fine. Go. And no one will know.

It's hard and harmful

I know people who have worked as cleaners)
It usually takes an hour or two to clean, and then you're done!)
They worked in institutes and offices. It's not as dirty there)

Anna Morozova Correct

Elena Well, working at night is okay, it's just a bit tough at first, but you get used to it :)

Of course, I worked.
I worked as a waitress in restaurants at night.
It was tough at first,
but manageable.

And how will you manage during the day if you're not only not sleeping at night but also working hard?

During the day, I worked at the MFC (Multifunctional Center). As soon as the queue cleared, people were always there. At night, I cleaned the building entrances, but only in my own building. I listened to my son, called him on the phone, answered the second call, and listened to see if he was sleeping or awake. It varied, but I needed the money. I lived in an 8-square-meter room with my son. I remember writing here back in 2017 asking for some help. Well, I got some help. My feelings about the site were mixed, but mostly it was teasing, with people checking if it was true I lived in such conditions. And if it was true I didn't have a husband. Anyway, if you need to, you can earn some money. I used to wash dishes in a cafe. They gave food there too.

Natali You're doing great! 👏👏👏

I used to work nights, but that was a long time ago, back when I was a student. I was on my own then. I can't imagine working nights with kids. But if life circumstances forced me to, I guess I would.

I was working, but not full-time. Last year, it was only 2-3 times a week for 2-3 hours.
I'm going to check soon (at the place where I used to wash dishes) to see if there's an opening.
It's extra money, and I need to shake off some extra pounds too.

I think night shifts are tough no matter the job 🤔 When I was younger, I worked one and got terrible headaches, my head felt constantly squeezed. Never again! 🤷️ It's a different story if you're forced into it… The only thing is, how will you manage with the kids during the day afterward, since you still need to catch up on sleep.
