This is just a simple question. Is
WORK bad for your health?
I know their is a thread about sanitation, but this is about something different. I'm talking long-term illnesses. Perhaps it can be, if you think about it. There are many stress related illnesses and ailments (ulcers, IBS, etc), and
WORK can be extremely stressful. In addition,
WORK can lead to a lack of sleep, possibly making existing conditions worse.
From my personal experience, I think that it can be a health hazard. Personally, I got pretty sick last year
WORKING and it isn't a short term thing. I still miss about a day of
WORK a week because of it. This has not been diagnosed yet (due to slow and possibly incompetent doctors), but it probably started as a stress related illness.
Perhaps these risks are worth while
(TO WORK).

Daniel, I'm not really making fun of you, but just making a point.
Everything is stressful, everything can affect your health, and everything should be done in moderation.
Mentoring FIRST Robotics is my way of enjoying what I like about being an engineer and to get away for the mundane office work for a short six weeks that challenges my brain cells.
Gotta keep the brain sparks firing.
