Everyone's first closing shift is a traumatizing experience. At least for me, a morning person who likes to front-load all the work of the day, a closing shift is my worst nightmare. Not only do you need to do 95% of your work in the last 30 minutes of your shift, but the time you go home is entirely determined by the last customer that walks through the door. When the customers are still casually strolling in 2 minutes before close, you know you're in for a long night.
At first, nobody chooses the night shift, but eventually the night shift will come for you. Good luck fighting the beastly manager as they continue to schedule you for irrefutable clo-pening shifts, where you work the close one night and the opener the next morning– you're sleep schedule is doomed. So if you're looking for reprise in the form of relatable memes for other closers in your position, keep scrolling for this collection of memes for exhausted employees who are always scheduled for the closing shift.
