I am having a hard time trying to decide. I stand all day without breaks. I work 6 day stretches in a row. I only have 26 working days left and I feel like I should just stick it out. I am just beat.
I stand all day too (I am a hairstylist). My feet couldn't take my full days anymore. I have tried all kinds of comfort shoes and nothing was cutting it so I cut back to five hour days instead of my usual 8 or 9. At the end of this month I am going to cut back to 4 hour days. My clients aren't thrilled, but they all seem to understand. I plan on working until 2 weeks before my due date.
i have a very demanding job. and i was working 8-9 hours a day. standing all day long. ?about a month ago i cut back to working 25 hours a week, so ive got 4 ?5hour shifts. and its getting to be too much now and friday is my last day.
I was having issues with low fluid, and my dr wrote me a note to cut back to 20 hours / week. If you get your dr on board, they will write you something to give to your boss / HR / whatever.
