I found myself walking a road outside the factory. Then I woke up.
I remember working the graveyard shift at a factory 40 years ago.

It wasn't as hot as the day or regular night shift, but I had a hard time getting to work sober at midnight and frequently got there somewhat drunk.

It was quite a challenge, since it was a fast-paced assembly line, frequently leading to back-up incidents like the time Lucy worked in the candy factory on the I Love Lucy Show.

Except that no one was laughing in my case.

I would sober up by daybreak, get a quart of beer for the ride home and then go to bed.

Occasionally, I would go to a 24 hour tavern and hang out for a while.

Can't say I miss any of it.
