i used to work at a theater in new york as a dresser. i had to be to work between 2 and 3 in the afternoon. it was lovely. we worked getting things ready until the show started, ran the show, did laundry and repairs afterwards and got out around midnight. on some wednesday nights we would go dancing at a bar called Salsa y Salsa. it was fantastic. i didn’t know now to salsa or merengue and i still don’t but the men would whisk you around the floor and all you had to do was follow. then we would go to the hookah bar and have a breakfast of falafel and hummus. and i would drag home and get to bed as my roommate was getting up for work. 7 hours of sleep and right back at it. so i know… this is mostly about the activities and not the hours, but i never could have done it if i worked 9-5.
