The night is quiet, until an alarm goes off 🐧

🌗 Day and night shifts
Different Air

The atmosphere in the office is quite different between the day shift and the night shift.

Day Shift

The day shift is 8:30 am to 5:30 pm. The other departments are awake at that time, so it is easy to check things and work together, but there are also a lot of reports and enquiries, so it is fairly hectic.

Night Shift

The night shift is 4:30 pm until 9:30 am the next morning. With breaks in between, about 15 hours of actual work.

🌙 What the night covers
Wider Range

At night and on holidays, only a limited number of departments are moving, so the range we take as first response gets wider.

All Of It

Reports about networks for smaller companies, reports about the data centre, handling alarms that go off in the night, and handing over to the day shift the next morning.

🚨 When the alarm goes off
Quiet Hours

Of course, there are quiet hours in the middle of the night.

Air Changes

But the moment an alarm goes off, or a fault report comes in, the air changes all at once.
