Used to cut grass and paint under the table for cash at a waste water treatment plant- we’d strap the lawnmowers or weedwackers up to a go cart and cut the grass at about 15-20 mph, and then find a hiding spot in the 55 miles of piping tunnels there were underground at the plant and take regular 3 hour naps. Best week was when we snuck the go cart piece by piece down into the tunnels, reassembled it, and painted the pipes without even having to stand up. Best job I ever had.

When I worked construction and had protein farts from my diet I would aim the exhaust of the shop vac at painters or the sheetrockers and fart into the end that sucks it turbo charges and blows the fart directly at whoever you point the shop vac exhaust at. If you catch somebody while they're coughing you can make them throw up I've done it a few times.

😂😂😂couple years ago I worked at a tree trimmer service company as a laborer and drove the truck, which was always packed with 6 workers, sometimes 7 and also ate a lot of protein.

As a plumber who does mostly new construction and renovations, the stories I've got from on the job could fill a book. Just the people you run into and meet on a daily basis, everybody is a character. It's one of the last gigs on earth where the people working it are actual individuals with personality and uniqueness still like how everybody used to be. I don't know people work in offices their whole life with boring people with no personalities and not kill themselves. I tried it for a brief period and I thought for a hot minute in my early 20's that I wanted to be an engineer, got my degree, landed an internship at this engineering firm where it was literally a bunch of nerds who've never used a power tool in their life but yet are designing houses sitting at a computer all day in their cubicles not talking to each other playing with AutoCAD. I lasted a month, quit, went to work for my uncle instead who is also a plumber and the rest is history.

One of the many jobs I had in high school was groundskeeper at a very large, historic cemetery. The old timers took- and kept all the "riding" jobs. So the stupid kids (including me) got to run Electric Trimmers - These were attached to long cords and then plugged into a diesel generator. Four kids go in four directions and start "week whacking" - but the trimmers have metal blades instead of nylon line. They "ting" and KICK if you hit a rock or stump. They're HEAVY and the drop-cords are nicked and dinged and chipped and cracked from years of kids like me abusing them. So... Every now and when, you'd get a JOLT from the dewy grass. We used to PRAY for someone to DIE so we could stop trimming for just a little while to bury them.

[@drummer78]

Ha! I worked at a cemetery one summer when I was in high school. The full timers were these crazy ex Vietnam vets and assorted alcoholics. During one of the burials they had me go into the hole because it was a double stacked burial (one on top of the of the other…remember those?). I was standing on the cement encasing of the bottom burial and using my shovel to remove rocks to make room for the cement encasing for the top coffin. The old timers were encouraging me to poke at the dirt wall knowing it would eventually strike into an adjacent burial area. Sure enough, my shovel broke through the other side and was poking at a casket that hadn’t been disturbed in 50 years or so. The old timer workers were above me cracking up….insane.

Damn this was a good conversation lol.

It's so pathetic to hear so many men complain when they have to do actual work. Acting like having to wear a tool belt to work is some kind of slave labor.

It's a shitty life. What human in the world wants to work in hot, cold, dangerous, painful, boring, arduous conditions?

[@losferwords100]

​@@edwardjones2202 No, it's really not. And it's not like construction work doesn't pay, most guys out there are making well over 6 figures making great money and have a great life because of it. Boring? You think construction work is boring? What, you'd actually rather sit in an office staring at a computer all day pushing papers instead? That's boring where the most exciting thing in your day is lunch. The stories I could tell from my on the job adventures could fill a book. Like I said, pathetic. The most entitled, weak, and pampered generation of people that ever existed are alive right now. No wonder this country is falling behind everybody else. People like you.

I did landscaping one summer early college days - i.e. taking rocks out of a new development/lawn. Rocks when it's August 101 degrees. Rocks, not small ones. With an iron rake. My lifeguard friends thought I was nuts.
