Paying attention

Cashiers where I work are all exhausted by the end of the day. Many, if not most, have developed some physical ailment during their eight-hour shift. Even the younger cashiers! Recently I noticed that by my last shift of the day I had tremendous pain on the right side of my back. It was happening every day. What should I do? Go to a chiropractor on my next day off? Go for a massage?

I chose neither. Instead, I chose to stop reaching across my body from right to left, and, instead, put the item in my left hand and use the left hand to put the item in the bag. Voila! It worked! And I save the money I would have paid to a chiropractor or masseuse!
