No job is worth giving up your health.  Either move, or find another job or find a carpool or change your hours.  Maybe your employer has some Internet based jobs.?  You could work from home either part or full time possibly.  Don't torture yourself because you will either end up chronically sick which will effect your ability to work anyway.  It's your responsibility to take care of yourself. No one else will.  Do what will work for you in the long run.  You only live once.  Don't assume you are invincible.  Your body can only tolerate so much. Taking care of you will help those around you.

The 8 hour rule is rubbish - it's slightly different for everyone. I need 7.5 hours in order not to feel tired, but I have worked for months on end with about 6 to 7 hours a night.  My brother in comparison has always needed at least 8 hours minimum.\n\nBest way to test is to got to bed slightly earlier for a week or so. If you feel much better and yawn less at work the next day then you probably need that extra time in bed!\nIf you are still knackered then go to bed even earlier - etc.\n\nAnd there is also such thing as too long in bed. Well, there is for me...if I spend more than 10 hours in bed I'm like a zombie for the rest of the day!!

No -the person is still getting 7 hours of sleep.\n\nIt really doesn't matter what time of night - or day - you sleep, as long as you are getting at least 6 hours of sleep.\n\nThe only thing it might be bad for is your job if you're supposed to be there at 8 am.

I am in North Yorkshire, UK. I take a packed lunch which normally consist of a sarnie, light crisps and low fat yoghurt. No alcohol. I personally wouldnt consume alcoholic when working, I'd normally leave it till the weekend. I dont think it is wise to drink and return to work. It could affect your performance and attitude towards others, let alone the sheer embarresment of your boss smelling it on you!

You should go into work earlier in the morning and get off around 2-3pm. My husband works construction in Phoenix. He moved here from cold wASHINGTON STATE. He's worked outside here for 4 years now. He got heat exastion once. He drinks about 2 gallons of water a day. You will get used to the heat. The bad part is the humidity.

If you have a copy of the note from your doctor and you have something in writing from your employer (like an employee handbook) that says you get sick pay, you are entitled to it.  Further, in California, if you do not get paid within 72 hours of leaving your employment, you continue to get a "penalty" of 8 times your hourly wage per day for every day up to 30 days after you leave.  I just got $7,800.00 yesterday at my hearing.\n\nI suggest you go to your local Labor Commissioners office (look on their website) and file a complaint (it's a simple one-page form).  You'll get a hearing date in the mail within a couple weeks which will tell you when your "conference" is.  \n\nGood Luck!

I don't think it's a good idea to eat that much in one sitting if you can help it.  You're already eating more calories than an average person, correct?  It would probably make you unable to do any of the exercise you need to do, you'd be incredibly sluggish.  If you are allowed any breaks at work, take advantage of them and eat,eat,eat, figure out some high calorie, but healthy snacks that you can eat quickly and efficiently.  Your place of work has to let you have a lunch break, it's the law.  Find out if perhaps, instead of one hour or half hour, whatever you are given, could be split up into smaller fifteen minute breaks, explain why you would like to do so, the worst that can happen is they say no.  Good luck and I hope this helps!

You should speak with your doctor to see what he/she recommends but many people who are quite ill travel on planes all the time. \nSince the air is recycled I'd wear a mask and ask your doc if you could take some airborne both ways on the trip. \n\nThe one and only time I did not get sick on the plane/cruise was when I went to Arizona last year and took Airborne both ways. Its worth a try if the doc says its safe for you.

I would email you but the postman in our area is on sick leave these days. And he had got a high fever too. As soon as he reports to work I'll email you. Until then take good care of yourself :)

Here's what to do:\n\nTake tomorrow off work sick.  That way it is more convincing when you take Thursday off too.  Sickness and diarrhoea is your best bet, noone can argue with you if you say you can't get off the loo!

I don't see any of the questions so I am lead to believe that you would like us to make up the questions so okay.  Well, there's the classic 1+1=2.  That's a good one to know because if you don't, then you're in some serious trouble.  Then you need to remember that distance=rate x time.  This is important if you are walking somewhere and you want to know if you have enough time to go to the bathroom.  So if you need to be there at 3:00 and it's 2:30 but you have 2 miles to walk, you need to pee really quickly unless you run there.  But if you run there, you may get there all sweaty.  If it's a job interview you don't want to be all sweaty because they may think you have some kind of sweating disorder.  That would be terrible.  If I were hiring someone, I wouldn't hire them if they had some kind of sweating disorder (unless they were actively seeking treatment.)  So, just remember to never run to your job interviews!

I'm so glad you asked this!  The one rule I wish everyone knew and practiced is  PLEASE do not blow your nose at the table.  Go to the bathroom or into another room where people are not eating!!  Thanks!

You don't! You are really sick. You should go play hopscotch on a busy highway.
