Reply to comment by Soccermom233 in Heavy workloads make employees feel a greater need for a break, but new research finds they may actually discourage employees from taking breaks at work despite causing high levels of stress, fatigue, and poor performance. by Wagamaga
I just do it at the pace I did before it got backed up. You can kinda just choose not to get too worked up or care. I clock out at the same time whether the work is piled up or not, and I do it at the same pace too.
Not sure how that applies to other industries but it works for me.

And to quit, usually right after getting their bonus.

This is the corporate version of telling the kids the rabbit ran away.

That said, the incidence rate for both infection and vaccine is extremely variable depending on age and gender (as this study clearly points out). This study was specifically looking at the age group that other studies showed the highest incidence levels from vaccines and some of the lowest rates from infections.

My friend, the challenge lies not in locating the link within the post. This is not a helpful take.

If you go back to the post, the link to the actual study is right there in the posted article. Super easy for anyone to find if they can be bothered :)

I dealt with this last year. Covid brought my team down to a skeleton crew, and then poor management caused further departures without replacement. After two years I took a single week of vacation and I know the whole time that nothing of my job would get done while I was gone because there was quite literally no one else to do it.

So the management successfully pushed the guilt onto you for them not hiring enough people. Start taking your full breaks. This issue needs to reach management and it won't if you keep covering for them.

Looks like this will be useful for lots of medical stuff. Cancer treatment, drug delivery, maybe even repairing tissues.

Not sure about US labelling requirements but here in the UK that would not be acceptable, the label should state the directions exactly as prescribed including “when required” if it’s to be taken only when needed. Would definitely recommend talking to the pharmacist.

Yeah but in a lot of roles the work just piles up until you're back.

My point was, if the business had the goal of reducing staffing levels, then they did not practice lean, they just told you they did. Lean is a principal that grows a business. If you are implementing lean, you are never firing people. You make people more efficient at their jobs so you can get more business. Then you hire more people.
Your company lied to you and you fell for it. And now you are beating up on their straw man.

Obviously financial situations differ, but I hope she can get out. No amount of money is worth working yourself to death on your one life.

The vaccine seems to lower the chance of getting fucked up if you do get the virus, both immediately and in the long term. Plenty good enough for me.

The originating title in JAMA is “Myocarditis or Pericarditis Events After BNT162b2 Vaccination in Individuals Aged 12 to 17 Years in Ontario, Canada”. This is a pretty standard and neutral PICO format title.
The problem is people on reddit (and elsewhere) taking that original article and translating it to focus on upping readership.

I was curious and found this article from 2015. Apparently sunlight is just as effective but the concern is exposing the newborn to sunburn and overheating.
