[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1694184, member: 198"] I've suffered from dehydration once (finished the day though) and from There is language states UPS must consider oue physical ability. My physical ability diminishes in those conditions. Some of the comments in this thread are rather sickening. It is possible to be properly hydrated and still fall out in the heat. The trouble starts when people assume that they can just endure the heat and sweat more because they are hydrated before (and during) work. This is not true in the combination of southern heat and humidity. We all have to take breaks from the heat. And I don't just mean lunch breaks. We need to allow our bodies to cool off while working too. When I'm in the back of the truck digging and the heat/sweat starts getting to me I will step out into the cab and cool off. I will drink more fluids and towel off. Sometimes the slightest breeze feels great after spending some time in the cargo hold. [/QUOTE]
