stiff hands
I just started working full time about 3 wks ago. I have never spent this many hours per week typing before. I am trying to maintain good ergonomics and technique, but I know I am not doing it all of the time.
My fingers, especially the ring and pinkie fingers on my left hand, are getting stiff. I have only been working for about 1.5 hours so far today and they are stiffening up already. It amazes me that with all of the work my fingers are doing, they are cold too. I feel like the stiffness is affecting my typing.
Can anyone recommend a good way to stretch to resolve this, or anything to prevent this?
Thanks so much!
And I'd like to be a surgical nurse, but I don't have the hands.
Did you ever consider whether you had the skills and tools to become a technical writer (medical language specialist, specifically) before you went into this profession? Did you ever take any career personality type testing in school or on line?
I'd love to assist in surgery for my career, but realistically, I'm too clumsy. But if I were determined to do it, I would certainly have researched schools and paid whatever was necessary to make sure I went to one that could have prepared me so I could have had a chance at it. Otherwise failure would be a given, right?
I have TOO (note 2 o's) much time on my hands. nm
