I used to be a night owl, then I had a job that required me to get up at 5:30. It sucked for 2 weeks and now I'm a morning person.

I had the opposite experience a few years ago, I am very much a night owl.

I did a job that required me in the office for 7am for a few months, I was noticeably less effective for the whole duration, I was just slower at everything and was basically constantly tired. Switched back to getting in for 9-10am and the difference was night and day, as basically I was back to my old levels of effectiveness after a day or two.

I just think I'm one of these people that cannot adapt, or at least if I do, it comes with a cost.

I'm a night owl and even early morning acclimatization hasn't helped.

There were a few months that I had to do 12.5 hour shift work where I had to be at work at 5:30 AM and I was miserable the entire time. It's hard to adjust when your natural cycle is like 10 am to 2 am.
