What the crap is an OOS? So i looked it up. Its an RSI, exept instead of repetitive strain injury, some genius thought the term occupational overuse syndrome is a better term. But why? Its like when occupational health and safety got changed to workplace health and safety. None of any of those terms is racist, sexist or offensive in any way. My medical records have down the time i did myself an RSI, and im not offended by that. For all i care it could be called working to hard syndrome, but that might offend the small percentage of people who pride themselves on laziness who convert their remaining energy into complaining.
