    My first two years in the Air Force, lived in the barracks, worked nights.
    Jet engine test cell was across the street from barracks, and they only ran engines during the day.

    Try sleeping on an aircraft carrier under the number 3 wire, which is the wire every jet is aiming for. It sounds like they are coming through your ceiling. The ear plugs work but usually will work their way out sometime during your sleep as well.:biggrin_25521:

    I like the people that pull in late and then start banging on stuff with a hammer or crowbar.

    Does skipping the truckstops and sleeping in rest areas help with the noise issue?
