Do you ever get used to working nights?

I worked Wednesday night. Without sleeping, I spent all day Thursday moving. I then slept from approximately 2130 on Thursday until 0330 Friday. I continued moving and running errands all day. I tried to take a nap, but couldn't fall asleep. I went to work from 1800 until 0600.

I couldn't sleep when I got home.

People ask all the time how long it takes to adjust to working the night shift.
You don't get used to working nights, you get used to being exhausted all the time.
