I’m just finishing my 3rd coffee of the day (I really need to cut down again!) and just wondered what hot drink other people prefer? Are you a coffee drinker or do you prefer tea or perhaps you like herbal tea (good flavour recommendations welcome!) or something else? How do you take your tea/coffee/other. I drink strong black coffee with no milk or sugar but with half cold water due to sensitive gums; I don’t drink tea but do drink herbal teas depending on the flavour, lemon, ginger and manuka honey is a current favourite but peppermint and liquorice is a recent fail on the herbal tea front!
I've never liked tea or coffee and drink only water now.
Growing up I would drink orange squash but now it's just water. Hot drinks cause me to visit so definitely no tea or coffee for me.
I only drank water until I was in my early 20s. But night shifts bought with them a need for caffeine. I still drink plenty of water though, it’s a good thing to drink plenty of :-)
Night shifts sound tiring. I can see why you need the caffeine :) I think it would be impossible for me to do night work what with my vomiting with hot drinks (well any food and drink come to that) and also I love my sleep so would probably never stay awake long enough :D
Day shift vs night shift, It’s a case of business vs tiredness.
Might be worth chatting with your GP if all food and drinks have started making you vomit!
It does sound like a good time to work. Must beat the crowded shops and noisy people you get in the day. It sounds like you enjoy itKitsune
I'm not sure. I've always been like it with hot drinks but its recent that other foods and drinks cause it. I guess you change don't you as you get older.
Night shifts are difficult but I still do the odd one from time to time. They are a lot quieter and less busy than a day shift. It seems as though you have a very sensitive gut if any food and drink makes you vomit?
