Night shift workers don't need energy for cliff diving or doing backflips on dirt bikes or bungee jumping; we need it to take care of patients, run into burning buildings, make sure the refinery keeps pumping, protect our cities, towns, and country. We're healthcare workers, truck drivers, security officers, warehouse teams, and first responders. We're the people who answer when you call 911 throughout the night. We're the reason the shelves are stocked when you wake up. We're essential—and we've been an afterthought.
