Warning! Stress!


I am a call center agent, and as you know, we do not have a fixed schedule. We are sometimes working in the graveyard shift, early morning and if you are one of the lucky ones, you'll be put in the mid-shift. Irregularity of sleeping habits can cause a risk to your health, aside from the fact that it will surely give you big eye bags, and dry skin (ugly, right?). So, how can we take good care of our health without the need of giving up our job. We'll, there are actually a lot of options you can do. Whether you will be assigned in the GY or early morning shifts, be sure to have a maximum of 8 hours sleep. Also, be physically active, enroll yourself in a gym, if not, during your spare time, go out and do the walking, 30 minutes of walking can do a lot for your health. Never skip meals, even if you are not hungry, try to eat something just to fill your stomach. Be a veggie lover and eat lots of fruits. Also, drink a multivitamins as a supplement to keep you going. During your day off, just relax, go to the mall, play games, and do stuff that will relax your mind and body.

We all know that being a call center agent is never easy, it causes you tons of stress. All it takes is a little discipline. Help yourself, or better yet, find another job, which will give you a fixed day time schedule, and will even give you a holiday off.
