I got out of construction this year. I was on jobsites for basically the entire shutdown for Covid.
Outside of disease, there are a lot of physical health hazards in construction that you're just expected to work through. Working at all on a coal-fired power plant, you're going to breathe in coal dust all day long for your shift, which for me was up to 16 hours a day not including travel time.
cw gross
if you sneeze or blow your nose for the rest of the day, the tissue will be black with coal dust. Imagine what that does to your lungs.
Edit: I originally wrote this when I first woke up, and was more combative than I should have been.
When I worked in construction they didn't give a fuck lmao.
Was this occupation recent?
