So I'm working the night shift right now chowing down some cold french fries from McDs. I can feel the grease sludge down my esophagus. Guess I'm gonna wash it down with some warm cola that's watered down by the melted ice. Whoo hoo.

Perhaps I'll mix some Shasta with cranberry juice come sunrise.

Anyone have any overnight favorites?

How about thin mints that have been put in the freezer...

I usually end up eating better on nights than days...

If I am working a string of nights, I will cook something up.... Bunch of Hamburgers, Spaghetti, Brisket, etc etc.... Then take it each night. After about the 4th night its starts to get routine, but its not that bad.

The other good thing is I find we usually can 'enjoy' lunch at night as that lull happens. During the day, its fork in one hand, charting with the other.... I miss lunch on day shifts way more than nights.
 
Good to know. I'll probably find myself in your shoes next year when I start residency...

I took some iced coffee's to the nursing staff and whoo hoo. I highly suggest this. Good food makes for good night shifts.

MATCHITIS!!!

I usually order out, since our cafe is closed and I feel like treating myself for working overnight. Always something unhealthy like pizza or cheese steak. I figure we have a cath lab, I'm in good hands.
 
nice... i've been getting those ginormous ice cream cookie things...
 
Nightshift fare:

16 oz cup of black coffee
medium sized banana
stick of gum for afterward

Post nightshift fare:

Fried egg
onion bagel
2 slices of bacon
1-2 12oz bottles of Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA

Mebbe 2-3 bottles at the end of a string of nights...
