On the night shift
Ross Reynolds hosts a special hour of The Record, recorded live at midnight. We heard from night shift workers around the region about what happens while many of us are asleep.
Who works the night shift in Seattle? And what do they want people who work during daytime hours to know?
As part of KUOW's Night Shift series, we opened the phone lines at midnight, to hear from people just getting off work, or just starting. We also spoke to Carlos Alvarez, a night nurse, and Scott Plusquellec, who works for the city of Seattle as the liason with the nightlife community.
