It's on the employee to stay hydrated. How the fukk someone else gonna be responsible for you not drinking water?
Just drinking water and Gatorade will not keep a person hydrated in oppressive heat like this
Since many of you are 6 figga nikkas that sit on your ass all day in well ac condition offices
Heat exhaustion can happen to anyone if they don’t take proper breaks
The problem with that is no matter what delivery service you work for
We are all tracked with gps and if a nikka stays in one spot for way too long
Supervisors will be on your ass once you get back to the office on why you are late
Second reason why nikkas try to be Superman is because they don’t want to “look lazy” to other people/customers
Each delivery service has a sort of “rescue” in the evening for carriers if they are too far behind
Many people ain’t trying to do one full route
Take one-four hours of another route
Then still have to go help somebody else at 6pm
So folks kill themselves just to either do like I said above or just to make probation so they can have union coverage
Lastly a lot of you muthafukas are quick to say stupid shyt like this and not understand heat exhaustion and how it creeps up on you in minutes
I had to work my route last week and I was almost outta here last Tuesday
I drunk everything in my cooler and didn’t understand why I was cramping and nauseous
I was doing my route at a regular pace, towel for my head, mini breaks but I knew something wasnt right by the end of my route
Excessive thirst
Clammy skin
After sweats
Salt outtake on my skin
So I sat down for awhile in the office at return thinking I was straight
It took me 2 hours to get home because I was a wreck in my car even with ac
Cramps all over, couldn’t sit still because they were so intense
Took me three days to recover fully
I say all that to say, many people don’t know the first sign of heat stress
Especially young kids and even older experienced carriers
Water and Gatorade is not the best for this type of overwhelming heat
Pediatrilyte, salt snacks and breaks are the best way to combine with the above mentioned
But again the general public like your dweeb ass needs your fry coolers and sneakers right this minute and it better be laid down neatly at your door while ringing your door bell and smiling like a fool at your pretentious asses or we will get a “talking” to by inept managers if your dikkhead ass decides to file a complaint
TLDR take your head out your ass, do some research, have empathy and patience
We can’t all be ungrateful, know it all dikkheads like you and the dummy brigade that dapped this nonsense
