I know that I'm not the only CRAZY person in this world, but I am about to start working 2 full time jobs (9am-5.30pm %26amp; 11pm - 7am) as a Secretary and a Hotel Front desk Host. I've always had 1 full time and 1 part time job, so I'm used to distributing my energy that way.
How should I plan my day? Travel time (one way) to work is roughly 15 minutes. I can dress the same way to both jobs.
Help?
How do you get sleep when working 2 full time jobs?
There are some great answers here on this board. It's nice to see others have done this and survived.
Adjust your diet - lose the coffee,sodas, junk food. And if the energy drinks/power bars work for you, definitely consider them. Try to eat a good hearty lunch midday. Don't skimp on food.
I'm not sure your have scheduled enough sleep time. You're going to need a minimum 4 hrs of sleep, uninterrupted. "Trick" your brain - change into pjs, darken the room, cool temp not warm in the room, maybe even a sound machine if you can sleep with one. Devote yourself to that sleep time but don't rush into the house fullspeed and expect to sleep right away. I don't recommend sleeping pills of any kind.
Definitely trim your "prep" time down - short hair, little makeup, quick change clothes. And do eat breakfast
Good luck and take care of yourself...
Reply:Hi, that's a lot of hours worked. Ever thought of working for yourself and be free of those long hours at work? Just a suggestion and if interested, please email me at rpelley5@yahoo.com and I can tell you how my team and I are doing it. Thank you.

I would do this, at costco buy a flat of Rockstar energy drink, slowly drink this over the shift.
I figured out a place to sleep at the second job for power naps, at my job it was a library. Get a cell phone where you can set a alarm to wake you for twenty minutes power nap.

Reply:I used to have schoool and almost full-time on a job. I survived by managing my time and planning ahead, but I would say that it would be really bad for your health...So you should quit one of the jobs!
