This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

There are definitely manual labour jobs that require little to no skill, a lot of site labourer work is like that. Carrying wallboard, emptying bins, just generally carrying shit around.
Don't know where do you live, but around here there is no construction jobs that only require you only to carry shit around. Also you need to learn a lot to carry shit around correctly unless you have spare back.
In Quebec they're called "journaliers" and being assigned to the Mason as a "journalier" sucks big time.
It's the entry level position in construction for people who didn't get a professional degree in a specific trade.
Glad to be enlightened, clearly this doesn't happen, since you haven't experienced it.
Big construction sites where I live definitely have such people, and it's a horrible job.
