So I still stand by wot I say sitting in front of a computer isn't really intensiveMate I saw some big blokes come through a bakery and faint because they couldn't handle the heat or the humidity..I used to be all like that: Oh you soft office workers don'tknow what real work is.. One of my mates is a solicitor and he's good with words.. He once said to me: The labour of the mind is far more intensive than the labour of the muscles.He wasn't wrong..Don't get me wrong I still love getting out of the office and onsite where I can get my boots dirty (from standing around), because I get a break.. But that's the nature of my job.. WHen I'm in the office it's go go go go go.. Managing 6-8 large projects.. Keeping track of where everything is in your head.. It is a big job..Yeah there are office workers who have no idea what real work is like.. But not all of them.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
