I work outside doing farming and it sucks to have to wake up at like 3am in summer to not die to the heat (and then work my other job after which can run later)

Summer outdoor jobs are moving to the night shift thanks to climate change. Road work had already shifted to overnight to cut down on traffic problems during construction.

For me, trying to harvest at night is a nightmare for mosquitos :/
