    It sounds great, but it was actually hell.

    Pretending to be busy while also being chronically bored out of your mind for 8 hours a day is physically taxing. Nobody expects it when they come in from, say, a retail job where they’re on their feet all day. But you can feel the toll it takes on your body to do that shit. If the pay was the same, I’d take factory work over office work any day. Office work just tends to pay way more.

      I agree entirely. I've worked in a couple different factories and I actually love that kind of work. You get really quick and good at stuff without it requiring any thought whatsoever but everyone is working in unison and getting shit done. But you're right, they don't pay that great at all.
