Hi Scubamark, and welcome!

I wouldn't have thought the variation in your hours would make much difference to your BGs, unless you find you really can't eat (ie, face food) at any specific time.

Are you allowed to eat while actually working? If you find there is a problem, it might be an idea to take a box of finger-food that you know you can safely eat, and have more frequent small meals until you get things sorted.

One of the forum monitors will be along shortly to give you more advice, and there are probably other shift-workers out there somewhere!

Let us know how you go on.
