I was looking for my computer (a laptop) but couldn't find it in my locker. Then I was asked about the broken change machine.
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.
