Nightshift + Girlfriend = Not Good For Me At All?
My girlfriend's brother-in-law was able to get me a job working with him 3rd shift. I gladly accepted, because it meant more money for me (I'll be going to college in about a month). My girlfriend also thought that it was a good idea, and said that I should take it. I didn't realize how bad it was going to be. I hardly ever get to see her, maybe one hour a day, except Fridays and Saturdays (I'm off). I've talked to her about it, and she says its bothering her too, but she seems to be dealing with it better. We plan on getting married after college, and she says that its good for our future if I keep his job, but right now its killing me. Actually I don't think I've felt this bad ever. Any advice on how to deal with it and stay at the job. It'll be slightly better once school starts, because I'll be leaving at midnight instead of 3 or 4 in the morning.

college jobs are college jobs..
It doesnt seem like there is anything too special about that job. You are young and have many opportunities.
If you just need some cash go look for another job.. preferrably before school starts so you don't have to worry about that.
I know it sucks looking for a job but sometimes you just have to do things to better your life... whether it's spending time with your girlfriend or finding better opportunities.

I agree with your girlfriend & she is being very supportive to you now & i think she has a healthy outlook on your relationship. You do need more money & if working 3rd shift doesn't affect anything more (e.g - your studies in college which is also very important) than just seeing her, you should stick to it.
You could both call or sms each other during the times of absence. It will cost a little more but it helps to keep the communication going.
You could meanwhile try searching for a job which offers better hours.. a 3rd shift job might in the future affect your studies in college.
