Late

I haven't gone to sleep earlier than midnight in about six weeks I think. I would like to go to sleep earlier so I could wake up earlier, but that is a difficult thing to do.

What would it be like to have a job where I worked all night and slept during the day? I could get home and be asleep by around 10:00 in the morning rather than going to sleep somewhere near 10:00 at night. I'd wake up at 6:00 - 7:00 that night to start my day. I think I would really like it. It's totally not feasible for college students (although that doesn't stop some people from doing it), but maybe once I graduated college I could do it.

The only job I in Computer Science that I've heard of being an overnight kind of job is penetration testing. Basically a penetration tester's job is to see if there is any way they can hack into a system or website to obtain or modify sensitive data. Some people do it at night and then send reports to the company for them to read the following day. Pretty neat stuff.
