Nice. Yeah, lugging heavy shit all day sucks donkey dick.
Forms are like 100 pounds and made of wood. You carry them by holding them with one arm and your shoulder. The wood digs into your shoulder - 100 pounds of wood digs into said shoulder. You take them off piles that are like 12' off the ground and put them into a 10' deep hole. The ground is always muddy and the form truck is heavy so you have to carry them quite a distance.
That was one seriously shitty job.
that does not sound like fun at all
It was fucking horrible. It was the shittiest job I ever had - and I spent eight years enlisted in the Marine Corps. It was seriously fucking shitty. It paid pretty well but that didn't make up for how shitty it was.
On that note, it's time to start getting ready for the dinner thing. I'll almost certainly return.
I do like physical work, not all of it though
