[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 986813, member: 12570"] We had a driver suffer an apparent heat-related issue on Thursday to the point where the on-car had to drive up to meet him and another driver had to come help him. From what I was told he was very disoriented, confused and somewhat hysterical. The on-car brought him in to an air conditioned store and put some ice packs on his neck, which seemed to help. Word is he became dehydrated and then tried to slam 10 32oz Gatorades. I am not a doctor but I think had he hydrated before work and during the 1 hour ride to his area he would have been OK. As to the OP's question if he would be looked down upon--unfortunately, he very well may be, especially if his co-workers are anything like mine. They were making fun of this driver during the PCM on Friday and I feel sorry for the guy come Monday. [/QUOTE]
