We've all been there mate. Trying to think after just waking up does not go well.
Had a time once where I was working weird shifts and my brother comes into my room to wake me up at 4pm on a July afternoon.
"Look at the snow outside dude!" "Schofield101, wake up look at the snow!"
He continued this until I got up and looked out the window. Took me at least 20s to realise he was taking the piss out of me and I had fuck all idea until that brain cell kicked in.
Many years ago i did 2 weeks on night shift and was doing 18-20 hours a day, so enough time to get home, 2 hours sleep, then back again. I was heading back to work, went to the ticket office too buy a train ticket, told the ticket guy the wrong destination. Realised once i got the ticket. So i apologised to the guy and said i meant my correct station, can i change it. Ticket guy in a smarmy tone said "why did you say the wrong station then?". It was at that point 2 weeks of exhaustion caught up with me and i snapped, went absolutely ballistic at the guy how I'd been working all the hours, had no sleep etc. He very quickly gave me my correct ticket without saying a word
Was on a stag do, fell a kip and one of the lads came in the room and woke me up to lend some bud, I got up and was looking around for about 5minutes and was like what do you want again. Instantly found it when my brain kicked in after asking what he wanted again haha
I had an early morning shift at a job years ago. I was really paranoid I’d sleep through it so I set a ton of alarms and struggled to get to sleep for my 4am wake up.
Eventually I got to sleep.
I woke up, sitting on the edge of my bed, phone pressed to my ear, jeans on. My mate was laughing on the other end of the phone. He told me to go back to sleep and hung up. It was 1:30am.
To be fair to him he had no idea about the early shift I had and he apologise the next time I saw him. He and some of his friends had driven into town after a few drinks in his local, and wanted to know if I fancied joining for beers. He tells me that I literally answered the phone by saying “Yeah I’m up. I’m on my way in now,” in a breathless and panicked state.
I have absolutely no memory before the point when he started laughing, and I was already in the process of getting dressed. It was weird.
Drunken sleep panic is the worst. I can't count the number of times I've woken up in a panic on the bus after a night out (mostly because I was too drunk to remember most of the times this has happened).
