Tips for long work shifts?

Question

I started a new job in a clothing retail store. 8 hour shifts always hurt my feet and I get really tired especially because it’s really humid and our AC system is very bad. There’s always a big crowd that comes into our store and it makes me really tired. Does anyone have any tips to boost my energy? Or other tips in general?

Answer

Caffeine, healthy lunch, comfy shoes and plenty of rest.

Answer

Eat a nice healthy breakfast. Snacks on nuts and fruit throughout the day. Don’t eat an extremely heavy lunch. Maybe a salad with chicken. This is what I did when I worked retail with my 14 hour days. Worked for me. Oh and water! Try to stay away from energy drinks.

Answer

All the above.  I work 12 hour over night shifts in an insanely busy ER, and it can definitely get exhausting so I feel you.  Good shoes, get rest when you can, and snack healthy with lots of fluids.
