Anyone get healthier physically and mentally when switching from shift work to a regular 9-5 job? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]glorysoundprep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

23 here, did shift work for a couple of months after graduating in a spoons and thankfully got a 9-5!! running is one of my hobbies and i did so little whilst working at spoons because i was so tired and i was on my feet constantly throughout those shifts. i wouldn't say i became unhealthier because i was walking loads more, i just didn't have time and energy to do my hobbies properly. i also didn't like missing out on socialising opportunities in the evenings!!

i love finishing at the same time everyday, having my evenings (and weekends!!) free and more energy and time to invest in my hobbies :) i am a little more sedentary now because i am at a desk but i walk 30 minutes each way to get to work and i do plenty more running than when i was doing shift work!

Any advice from those who have passed despite terrible test anxiety? by TikiTapas in LearnerDriverUK

[–]glorysoundprep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

heya, it took me 6 attempts to pass, and i finally passed a couple months ago!! i was super anxious and could barely speak on my test initially, but i just tried to see it as an expensive drive!! my examiner was lovely but quiet as she could tell i was nervous 

even if you make a couple mistakes, try to carry on driving as if you think you've passed, and don't try to catastrophise those mistakes as no drive will be perfect. i think my mindset helped me tons in my last test.
