Fun fact, caffeine has a half life of 3-7 hrs, after that the positive effects fade and you are left with all the negative(jitters, dehydration, fatigue, depression…) but it will be an average of 5 hrs. so to alleviate this you should only drink half the caffeine you would normally consume in the morning and half about 3-5 hours into your shift, or Probably far less than that given how much caffeine people drink to avoid the above mentioned symptoms, also drinking plenty of water and try magnesium and exercise too ensure the caffeine moves out of your body before the symptoms kick in, or consider switching to a natural alternative like cocaine(That last bit was a joke don’t sue me)
The hack for this is to get cold brew (more caffeinated and tastes good cold) and sip it slowly throughout the day alongside water.
This is how I avoid a crash when I do drink coffee. The negative side effects of caffeine make me want to end it all though so I tend to avoid drinking it with any regularity these days.
Not exactly the same but I just went to Amazon to reorder my coffee as I’m getting low and for whatever absolutely bat shit insane reason they decided to double the price in just a handful of weeks… So fuck that. Now I have to find something else. :/
caffeine is a drug what you expect? heh
Coffee / energy drink drinkers sound like drug addicts
That’s because they are. It’s just a socially acceptable drug addiction.
I currently work as a barista, but I’ve also previously been a pharmacy assistant in a methadone clinic for recovering opioid addicts.
Honestly apart from the paperwork and the stakes involved if one messes up, the jobs are pretty similar.
It boosts our economy…
Coffee?
the fake raspberry that gives you metallic burps for the next four hours
