I'm okay, because I never was into this "sleeping" thing to begin with. :D

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

it can be if you're stressed about other things and losing sleep and whatnot. but other than that. i don't think so. :yikes:

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

If robotics is bad for you, well then I guess I'm gonna die. But hey, we all die eventually. At least I'll die happy :D .

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

The same happens to me every season and afterseason rebuild...and I couldn't be happier :)

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

yeah, dito to what karen said....plus, robotics is mentally stimulating - it's a lot less physically taxing than sports too. And I wouldn't be concerned about sleep (or lack thereof) - robotics just reaches you how to manage your time... :D

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

I dunno, when I had my first FIRST dream (funny sentence) I woke up laughing. The robot was chasing Nick, a kid on our team that is about 5-1, around 75lbs. You would have to know the kid for this to be funny, but he was running away from the robot (in my dream) and the robot's vision sensor was working like a dream (that in itself seperates it from reality) finding his red shirt and locking on, following him in circles.

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

YES... ITS VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY BAD for my health, cause I like it way too much that at times I will forget to sleep. I love FIRST. :]

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

No way! If by hazardous you mean thinking about robots 24/7, waking up at 2am in the morning to jot some ideas down, completely losing your social life, and staring at a computer until your eyes hurt, then yeah! :D

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

Yes. and i LOVE it.

Cough (Jacob son of the Dude that lets us use his shop also has brother tahtt got us connections when he was in robotics) Placed a scooter near the door I tripped over it dropping the robot slicing my finger while nearly breaking it and hitting the team caton on the head all at the same time!

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

I haven't had time to read through all this (just got back from the shop :ahh: ) but I would say yes, it is bad for your health. Sleep deprivation and metal absorbtion (like fine aluminum dust) are not good for you. Robotics probably brings down your physical health a little bit, but increases your mental health a lot, unless of course that aluminum starts to make you forget things. What was I saying?? :confused: :D

Re: Is robotics bad for your health?
 

Well I don't know if robotics is bad for your health but I certainly know it's bad for your marriage. :rolleyes:
