That’s only the “I haven’t slept at all in nearly a week” level, and I’m not talking like an hour a night.
I’ve worked 12 hour shifts before commuting 1-1.5 hours each way, along with having lifelong insomnia, and half of those shifts were 7 PM to 7 AM, so I know the toll it takes on you. 4 hours or less of shitty quality sleep after working a 12 hour day and being awake for 16-18 hours, off hours (going to sleep at 9 or 10 AM and waking up at 4:30 PM) definitely takes a toll on you.
My brother is a machine and sleeps like 3-5 hours a night, commutes hours each way, works as an electrician for like 10-16 hours, and then would come home and take care of his daughter (who just turned 4, he’s held the same job for years).
I can’t think of a funny joke/pun since it’s 2:30 AM and I’m waiting for my 20 mg of Ambien to kick in, but your typo of corpse without the e made me think of you killing a group of people (a corps, pronounced Core, because, French) just to sleep on their corpses 😂
If you don’t regularly get enough restful sleep you can start microsleeping and you wont be aware of it. I’d have a stern talk with your brother about that since he does dangerous work as an electrician and has a young daughter.
I’ve tried to but he’s stubborn as hell and doesn’t listen, he’s 4 years older than me. He breaks my balls about relying on Ambien for sleep. His opinion is “if I’m fucked up I wanna feel fucked up” (as in “something is wrong”) and I retorted “do you want to feel that way for the next 40-50 years when it can be remedied?” and his only response was " you got me there… "
Sleep deprivation is a few notches above insanity. You would gladly kill someone if it ment you could sleep on their corps.
