I’ve seen what it looks like to show up running on fumes and still be expected to perform.
You don’t feel it all at once.
It sneaks up on you.
Reaction time is just a little off.
Focus isn’t where it should be.
Things that normally stand out… don’t—and before you realize it, that tunnel vision just starts to feel normal.
Nothing major—just enough to matter.
That’s where it starts.
Not because you don’t care. Not because you’re not capable.
Just worn down.
A fit, hydrated, better-prepared worker is a safe worker.
This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about staying sharp when it actually counts.
You matter. Your family matters.
Stay sharp. Stay safe.
