First off, one tends to have friends that work the same hours
We used
to go out to eat after work; in any urban area there are plenty of
places to eat that are open all night.
Being a nightowl by nature, sleeping wasn't ever a problem. Needed much
less sleep when working nights than needed at a usual 'day job'.
Never got that much time to eat at work (and often no dedicated space),
so brought in small meals that could be downed quickly. Generally ate
whatever was in the fridge for 'breakfast' as soon as I got home. After
a few hours of sleep, made a normal 'dinner' and packed more to take
along.
