I remember steaming up my own glasses without warning.
Husband complained I would wear out the stairs going up and down changing from 'I am freezing clothes' to 'OMFG it's so hot clothes' and back again.
But keep a stash of chocolate - it can't hurt.
When my third wife found out I was going to be temping in an other-wise all-female office she gave me a present. It was a five pound Hershey's bar with a note on it:
"In case of emergency, throw this, then RUN!"
I have tasted a Hershey's bar, the best thing you could do with it is throw it (up?)

That's why milk chocolate was third on my list. It's a last resort thing to use while you fetch some of the good stuff.

I'm an instrumentation and control systems engineer. I love the challenge.
Chocolate helps, but I found Twizzlers and Chilean Malbec are more reliable. The dish is half Puerto Rican, half Irish, which seems to cancel some traits while multiplying others.

My best friend also is in instrumentation and c/s. He currently is living in Gonzales La - and I'll bet you would have a good guess to the company he works for.......

Hershey's isn't chocolate, it's candy, that's why it tastes like ****.

Milk chocolate is the best.
But I wouldn't touch Hershey's.
Cadbury is better.
