[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1686375, member: 28388"] 1) It's hereditary. One side of my family, from Wales (UK) I believe, always has sweat like crazy. I've accepted it. I'm pretty much a hot mess from late May to September while at work. 2) You're not used to the work. Others have developed a flow and found little shortcuts to not work quite as hard and also probably have paired up with unloaders working at a more reasonable pace. They often put the new sorters with the "I'm pulling walls over onto the extendo and don't GAF about what's heading to the aisle" unloaders that more senior sorters don't want to deal with. 3) Others have built up a tolerance for the temperature. I used to be horrible in the heat in the summer. I went on vacation to the Bahamas twice and Hawaii twice and barely left my hotel room because I was uncomfortable in the heat/humidity. I still dislike the heat but since I started with UPS I don't mind it nearly as much. A couple days ago I was out in the backyard and it was 90 and I realized I wasn't sweating very much and that driving in this weather has gotten me used to it. [/QUOTE]
