Hey thanks for asking but it didn't go well, i had a horrible night of sleep (neighbour kid started again making noise tiill 23:30 and it's also extremely warm), and i woke up at 5:00, alarm had to be set at 6:00 like with my previous job but one hour longer of work ending, and what they didn't tell me is often they have to work over (which for me isn't a problem if it's an exception rather then standard) but also on saturdays and the girl who instructed me said she hated it because with 1 off day you can't catch up on your sleep but she had nights of 2 hours, and we all have our bad nights, but i knew from my previous job i couldn't handle a constant 4-5 hour of sleep (with 3 days working i could take that rest but not with 5-6). Maybe i am a wuss compared to her, but i got diabetes and a heart condition and some need more sleep then others but i chose for my health.
The whole fuss about going through a job agency too which could have lasted 4 years, filling in my hours each week instead of just getting your normal salary clocking in or something, and overall i just had a feeling of not feeling comfortable there, even before going there and i am very intuitive about things (if i could have seen the workplace when i had the interview i could have taken that decision back then).
Today i am going to another interview for logistics with a job starting at 13:30 (so no sleeping issues there) for a few hours a day, will take me some biking (but need to work more on my condition) and i asked the owner if more hours were possible since he expected growth and maybe in november i could even do 40 if i wanted, and there are others options for growth, so i really hope that this goes through, however it will be again a whole new area of expertise and i hope i can do it.

4-5 hours of sleep almost every day is INSANE. Aren't there any work laws protecting you guys against such abusive practices?
It's for the better then, that it didn't go well. Hopefully today goes better! Good luck buddy

No it's not like we work 16 hours a day, i mean if you got insomnia or just bad nights it's your problem, not a company you work for, and i can understand that, plenty that kinda force you to do night shifts too though.
Turned out today they really wanted someone full time rather then part time so that only benefit over another warehousing job still pending in my hometown is gone now, and there will be alot of telephone work (i am best just working in a small team or on my own but not alot of contact) and there were some other things, so now i am more hoping again on that job in my hometown, but not really something for the rest of my life (my dad says you can always switch but can't keep switching either else comapnies look at you weird too) still hope to start my own foodtruck someday..
