For those of you that know me, you know I've been doing these for quite some time.
Speaker:
The fun part is the doing them.
Speaker:
The hard part sometimes is coming up with the content.
Speaker:
I reached out to some of my partners and colleagues at our firm, and I said, hey, if anybody has any ideas that they would like me to share, please let me know, and I'll be happy to do so.
Speaker:
One of my favorite partners reached out after having had a, we'll say an incident at a company function, said, hey, I think you should talk about how to handle hangovers in the workplace.
Speaker:
So, I gotta be honest, I don't have a ton of recent experience, but from back in the day when I did, here's just a couple of pointers for handling a hangover in the workplace.
Speaker:
First and foremost, hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.
Speaker:
I know it's easy to get caught up, beer after beer, wine after wine, shot after shot, but let's be smart.
Speaker:
Buffer in some water every now and again.
Speaker:
It really helps.
Speaker:
If you don't, however, and you find yourself awake, having to rush off to work with a hangover, just remember it's never too late.
Speaker:
I know it'll be tempting to go for the caffeine, but buffer in the water.
Speaker:
It'll speed things up.
Speaker:
Second thing, Let's be honest, if you're anywhere even close to my age, hangovers hurt.
Speaker:
Let's not be shy about this.
Speaker:
Advil, Tylenol, whatever it takes.
Speaker:
It is your friend.
Speaker:
Take it regularly until you can get to the other side.
Speaker:
Lastly, have fun with it.
Speaker:
We've all been there.
Speaker:
Yeah, it stinks.
Speaker:
And so you made a mistake.
Speaker:
You drank too much the night before and now you're trying to function.
