A Kenyan man has opened up about the unusual rhythm of his working life after securing a remote position with a Chicago-based company, operating entirely on American hours from his home in Kenya.

Speaking to Business Insider, 32-year-old Jimmy explained that when it is 4 pm in Kenya, it is 8 am in Chicago, meaning his entire workday runs from late afternoon to around midnight Nairobi time.

The transition was not immediate. During his first month on the job, about three months ago, he relied on afternoon naps to get through the day. Over time, his body adapted, and the naps became unnecessary. He now prioritises eight hours of sleep each night, which he considers non-negotiable.
