    ngl the recurring significant labour associated with my job has improved my physical health a lot (and mental health.....somewhat) despite my so-so habits in the rest of life

          I work as a mover so a 12 hour walk sounds like....well, a nice walk haha. but I limit myself to 4 days/week and naturally some moves are easier than others

          I used to have a 9-5 desk job for quite a while and seppuku nearly occurred at the tail end there. not for me.
