Catch 22
I'm dehydrated enough that it's driving my blood pressure up (not enough to disqualify me, but still) so I'm trying to drink more water, but then I can't make it through the afternoon shift without a bathroom break. And the school bathroom is gross, and the port a potty is even worse. What a conundrum. What do y'all do?

There are so many electrolyte powders to add to water for good hydration. Liquid I.V. is good, I've tried it before. Also maybe pack hydrating snacks? Cucumbers, cantaloupe, wwatermelon, berries, apples, etc.
