    thats my area of knowledge. nothing better than being asked to go to another line as so and so has problems and been down 45 minutes. you go over , they are like i dont know whats wrong. in a few seconds you tell them this or that is broke or worn. ill go get you the part. after its done they always say How the Hell did you know that.thats why it tics me there pay ant much below us senior operators.

    Yep, that's what my son's Samsung did, 10 years ago, I guess they haven't changed.

    Personally I only buy Sony TVs.

    I'm asking to move back to mid-shift. Kristi says I'm too stressed on swings and she definitely doesn't want me applying for the day-shift operations supervisor position. She said she'd rather have me tired on occasion during days off than stressed out all the time. She reads me better than I read myself, so I listen to her... finally and most of the time. ;)

    Yep, they would lay people off bring them back as private contractors and pay them more than me albeit no benefits. UniRoyal payed maintenance much better than operators. Hospital is better yet.

    This is what I found...

    If blood sugar levels drop too low, our livers release stored sugar to stabilize it. This happens when we fast for prolonged periods, like overnight.

    There are theories on how artificial sweeteners may interfere with this process (5Trusted Source).

    1. Insulin is released in response to the sweet taste.
    2. Regular use changes the balance of our gut bacteria. This could make our cells resistant to the insulin we produce, leading to both increased blood sugar and insulin levels.
    Also read something about Aspartame also effects other hormones that help balance blood sugar. IIRC
