REAL LIFE NEWS: WORK REALLY IS BAD FOR YOU!

by Hazed

Speaking of going without sleep, new research suggests that the single biggest lifestyle factor that messes up sleep is... work! The more hours you work, the less sleep you get.

In other words, if you are short of sleep, the time you should be spending tucked up in bed is most likely to be taken up by work instead. Second sleep-replacer on the list is commuting, which is again linked to work. Fun stuff like socialising and other leisure activities come third.

So if going without sleep is bad for you... and work is cutting into sleep time... then work really is bad for you. I knew it!
