Any jobs for a night owl? (piefed.diffrint.org)

Here I am at 3am once again and I have to accept that I'll never be a morning-person at this point. I'm curious: are there any (high-paying) social work jobs that work third-shift, or overnight shift?

Third-shift (3PM-12AM) is my absolute favorite and it would be a dream to have a shift like that as a social worker. I'm graduating soon and am going to start looking for ASW jobs, so, if you all could suggest any specific jobs that have third-shifts / overnight I'd be so grateful.

I know therapy can have late night hours but I wonder how often I will get to schedule 3/4PM - 10PM / 12AM. I'd love that shift but I don't no how realistic it is as a therapist.

Crisis and hotlines.

For therapy, I wonder if you might want to seek licensure in another state with a different time zone so you can work overnights more easily!
