Main thing at night is to go extra slow in the farm yards if that's where your delivering lots of obstacles high and low to pay attention for ... My uncle almost electrocuted himself one spring the snow kept building up all winter and his boom hit overhead line and dash started popping and caught fire .. You just need to be more aware of things . I'm sure once you put in some time the opportunity to move up may present itself

It depend too on your actual work hours. 4pm-4am Which ain't bad, you get to bed while it's still dark. But 7pm-7am, now you're up all night long, right ? Getting to bed when it's sunny out.

I was working on spoiling my girlfriend but she's in school for nursing. I joke with her that I'll quit my job and she can be my sugar mama haha.
I think as long as both of yall are happy then keep doing what you're doing
