Lately, I've been thinking more and more that most modern jobs, including mine, are a bunch of crap. Developers, consultants, marketing/social media experts, life coaches, etc. All crap. Turn off the power, and it’s all gone.

I’m starting to long for a real job. Honestly, just flipping burgers. Digging in nature. Actually setting up and using real machines. Sweating it out in the kitchen (I did that a lot as a student), scrubbing and cleaning things. Sure, I do all this privately, but it would be nice to work in an honest, real job for a change.

A friend of mine works as a floor screed layer. Always working. Jacked as hell. Doesn’t train at all, just doesn’t have the time for fake shit like "gyms".

The fact that these types of jobs are poorly paid isn't the fault of the job itself. We just don't value honest work anymore.

The real deal is in owning one of these so called "boring" businesses. I had a landscaping company a few years ago. So much fun!

Would totally do again. Time & cost heavy to front but they flow wonderfully once scaled and the bedt part is seeing clients and employees both happy with the service - that real world acomplishment 🙂
