When i was a building contractor it was full of times of anxiety. A horrible feeling. In later life I took up meditation. I did a course in it. Really helped me to have peace of mind. It made me feel like I had nothing to worry about and everything was all good. The building game is a stressful business. Employees, weather, customers, things going wrong, too much work to cope etc etc.

Shame they don’t extend that level of support and understanding to the boys out on site … Red card see you later … taking the mental health issues and stress levels to an all new high … completely missing the giant red flag 🚩 that said behaviour was nothing but a great big sign saying help I’m not ok … and taking away a already desperate persons only means of providing for their family would be the point Mental health support would be most needed.

How about society stops demonizing men for being men, and take a cold hard look at societies’ insatiable yearning towards instant gratification. Is it really necessary to work 12-16 hrs a day, every day of the week for months on end????

Why the BS then? Maybe you should be the ones that are being beamed by these ELF waves mind control experiments happening around the world! God sees everything! The voice in my head just said "me and my big mouth" as he wanted me to write that.. That is true. God does see everything and the little Rothchild that is in my head (that is what the voice calls itself.. Robert R... is going to be calling for his daddy to send him more money soon because I will take him to court if he doesn't hang up! Beware! Look up Jesse Ventura and Dr Robert Duncan interview (ex CIA whistleblower) for more info. This is NO joke.
