Synopsis
Today's economy and high-tech boom have increased the number of people inhabiting America's nocturnal workforce. Recent data indicates that, out of 20 million Americans, one in five reports to work at night. A 24/7 world demands an around-the-clock workforce. Humorist Will Durst explores how and why Americans work non-traditional hours. Durst peers into the lives of many who work the night shift, including an early morning CNN news anchor in Atlanta, a young emergency room nurse in San Francisco and a computer babysitter who burns the midnight oil warding off hackers.
