I started a new job a couple of months ago, however when I started working, I knew the summer time season was going to be the busiest time of the year; I wasn’t surprised when the theme parks started filling up with people around the start of August.
The locale was packed from a single side to the other once School ended as well as all of the teenagers were apartment for the summer, but my boss had myself and others working outside as a snow cone vendor a couple of weeks ago.
I was sitting outside in the sunshine most of the day. There wasn’t a canopy on top of the snow cone cart, so I did not have any shade from the Sun. I stood outside in the theme park from 10 a.m. until 2 pm. I was supposed to take my dinner cut at that time, but no a single showed up to relieve me, at 1, I flagged down a single of the park security guards so she could find the manager. I felt prefer I was going to get a heat stroke. The hot as well as cold temperatures were extremely sizzling as well as humid as well as I wasn’t anywhere near the a/c. When my boss finally sent someone to relieve me, it was almost 3. I sat in the cut room by the air conditioner vent as well as I felt extremely dizzy as well as faint. I tried to drink some water, but it made myself and others sick. I started to assume prefer I was going to pass out, so I went to the medical office. The doctor told myself and others that I was already suffering from heat stroke… She called the park manager as well as told the woman that I needed to go apartment for the rest of the day. I sat in the cool air for the next hour, while I earned an IV.
