Demolition is fun but not worth the fabulouly large amount of diseases you'll likely end up with
>>35411346
Meh. Risks in any job really.
I do take my health extremely seriously though, and this is the UK you can't get within 1000 yards of a building site without wearing 8 dustmasks, a hard hat, 4 pairs of gloves and a sports cup.

I know, some of my work is in health and safety
But I'm also a retained firefighter so it makes up for that depressing yet well paid job
>>35411411
Ahhhhhhhhhh I see, what is that like as a career? Most lads moan about "health and safety bollocks" but I don't have a chip on my shoulder about it. Theres a reason its there and a reason why more people don't get seriously hurt or killed.
How's the firefighting?
>>35411442
Firefighting, when it happens, is the best job in the world
H&s is boring and people dislike (I don't know why, you keep them in a job longer and if they do something they're not supposed to they won't get dick in compensation from anybody) you but the money is good and some of the more specialist fields are really well paid. Also no student debts etc
>>35411204
Trades fit approved?
>Heavy equipment tech
>Gotta have knowledge in various fields such as hydraulics, electronics, hvac and vehicle mechanical components.
>Live in northern Canada so have to spend lots of time out in freezing weather
>Great pay along with the satisfaction you get from fixing stuff

>>35411520
Sounds like a good career. Firefighting is definitely top of the tree in terms of a manly and noble job.
How do you mean retrain then??
Aye I agree Lad, I think there are quite a few dickish H&S guys out there though who really go overboard and become little napoleans and just delay a job rather than assist in keeping it safe. But you sound chill.

I worked manual labor (plumbing/pipefitting) for 4 years and found it really hard to make gains. I wasn't lifting as seriously but it was very hard to eat at a surplus after burning so many calories over the average 10+ hour day's work.
Luckily I got promoted to pencil pusher and have gained 35 lbs this year.
>>35412032
A sedentary 9-5 is the best job for gains. A regular schedule is one of the most important aspects, that way your job doesn't interfere with going to the gym, eating, or sleeping.

Personal trainer about to make a personal fortune off NYR'ers. Fat fucks are walking piñatas full of money. Unfortunately they have to take up so much fucking space.
>>35413989
I'm not him but from what i know from couriers its down to timing. The hire ups and tax payers feel the same way you do so they put ludicrous time restrictions and schedules on the deliveries, literally down to the second. On top of that you have angry dogs, angry people that you must hand bills to, crack heads schizos and general weirdos, just look up the mortality rate among delivery people. Oh and if you fuck up its a federal offence.
So no its not a difficult job in itself but any simple task performed in a pressure cooker environment is going to be stressful.

As long as your not a team leader they aren't really stressful as the worst that can happen is you stay for 10-15 minutes longer after the usual end time.

Then when you finally get hit in the eye with a flake of cement or something, he lawyers up and blames you for not working safely enough and you get no comp pay.

Can I get some advice about construction jobs? The job itself is not outrageously physically demanding save for low-back pain and frostbite.
However, my health is taking a serious nosedive. I'm so fucking tired after the 8 hr shift/commute that I can only manage a nap and an hour or two awake before the next day.

Construction is great trade to get into. An apprentice carpenter can earn upwards of $25 an hour without a degree. Construction engineers earn one of the highest-paid salaries of jobs that also don't require degrees, over 70k a year. It's also a field that will always be relevant.

OP and Demolition bro here, what sort of area of construction you in?
Don't be popping caffeine then keeping yourself up all night. Make sure you get the right amount of sleep for the job, not sleeping properly causes the most accidents I would say.
Just keep a good routine, make sure you're in bed at a certain time, eat well during the day and wait til your body hardens up to the rigours.
Your body will adapt.
I always say all builders could all be in pretty fucking decent shape just from the job alone if it wasn't for all the shit they eat, the smoking they do and the alcoholism that comes with the territory.

Depends on where you served. If you were Army you were most likely DYEL but the Navy dudes were pretty fuckin big since nowadays they dont even cardio past selection just lift and if they gotta run they old man strength it.
>>35421970
Yeah from what I've seen from friends who have joined and my limited experience as a reservist it's obvious that the fitness tests are actually piss easy compared to the level of fitness you need to survive the day to day job.
>>35418346
Your future will consist of OK pay, but you will have to "prove" yourself to your boss by working over 40 hours per week. To show your "dedication" you will be expected to do minimum 50 hours, with pressure to go to 60+
There will be no respect from people actually doing groundwork and making money for the company (assembly, fabricators, machinists, etc...). You will have to always take the high road and show the utmost respect to everyone else to get a chance to be taken seriously over time. Prepare to be labeled "some kid fresh out of school" for about 15 years after you graduate.
My advice is to become an expert in standards (AISI, ANSI, ASTM, etc...) and find a job with a small-medium sized company.

I plan to get enough income through selling fur and meat from hunting to live on. I won't need too much money because I live rurally in a cabin. I don't own the cabin yet but I'm working on that. I only pay 35 USD a month in rent. I live in an area where it's cheap/free to hunt most fur animals because nobody cares about it anymore. Food is free because I hunt the meat and there is very little expenses because of the lifestyle. This winter I've been working on my tanning skills, and have made a dog fur coat that is keeping me warm at the moment. No need for /fa/ bullshit out here.

As someone from Alaska who's tried damn near every job here. Fishing really isn't that bad (I've seined, crabbed, gil-netted e.t.c.). Most fisherman over exaggerate what it's like out on the water to sound tough since no one else is out there watching. Also I know plenty of you fucks that lie about how much they make and can barely scrape coin once tax time comes around. And no one eats seafood while out, no captain is retarded enough to let his crew eat profit unless it's some sort of celebration.

I know a lot of fishermen working in the Atlantic. It is common to eat bi-catch (no profit so why not) rather than to throw it all back out. Apparently it saves money.

prob the #1 career choice to kill your gains, that or any "professional services" such as accouting or law.
Enjoy pulling all-nighters, unheathly food and booze while having no time to cook, sleep properly and exercise, now go bill some hours by doing powerpoints about value-added synergies.
à /fit/ approved job is the one that leaves you enough of time to go lift and progress.

The belt is fine, it looks weird cuz the guy is a manlet.
In the military, too much cardio desu.
I am a student studying Classics with a strong focus on Ancient Greek history.
I would suggest that this is the ultimate /fit/ profession. And yes, the quality of my research allows me to call it a profession.
I spend my days studying Greek art, which often revolves around the physical perfection of men like Hercules. I have studied the chiseled form of over 300 statues of Hercules and written multiple detailed theses about what they mean to the larger philosophy of western society. I have spent more hours considering the impact of Hercules' triceps on Plato and his larger views of the Universe than most of you have prepping your fucking peanut butter smoothies. You are chimps compared to me.

Freight train conductor here for the BNSF.
>>35421992
Electrical. Mostly just hanging 3" conduit on uni-strut these first two weeks. Would be cake if we had the correct size ladders. Not a fan of working 1' above and 1' behind myself with legs twisted for balance.
I'm kinda confused on how all these people are morbidly obese chain smokers, and yet I'm getting the worst of it.

I'm a delivery driver for Waitrose. I basically just drive around London all evening listening to podcasts and music and get out of the van every twenty minutes to lug a dozen crates of bottled water up to some rich cunts apartment.
It's actually really chill. I get really cheap food in the company canteen for easy bulking. I get to spend my working day by myself without a boss over my shoulder. I get to see a lot of london and if I get a break between drops I can go grab a couple double cheese buggies at maccas.
It's a stepping stone and not where I wanna be but it'll do me for now.
>>35429112
How hard is it to find parking?
>>35429139
When I started it was a bit of a kick in the dick. I would park fucking half a mile from my drop because I was a pussy about it.
After a while you realise you can stick the van pretty much anywhere (apart from red routes and some double yellows) and stick the hazards on and you're golden. There's a few areas in central where there's basically nothing but red routes and pay and display bays where you basically have to get a ticket but the company knows this and just pays them.
>>35429194
Cool. How fit are you? You ever been hit on by a customer?
You know, it's kind of a fantasy of mine to be fucked by a delivery man or a trader doing work in my house. Too bad most of you are straight. No homo.

I've delivered to a few dudes who were obviously gay and a few times I've gotten an obvious fuck vibe from them.
Like they'll be extra friendly, make an effort to spark up conversation, be kind of flirty etc... One of them was really good looking and built too but I'm not gay enough to risk my job on that.
With women it's harder to tell. One time a woman answered the door soaking wet in her skimpy dressing gown... She seemed disappointed that I wasn't one of the big black drivers.
Some milfs kind of stand a little too close, ask a lot of questions. It's too risky to do anything more than flirt back a little. One phone call about harassment to the depot and I'm out of a job.
Then there are the older ladies who are lonely as fuck and just want to talk to someone. They'll talk your ear off if you let them. Hell they'd probably suck my dick if I flopped it out. But no one wants that. You just have to make your excuses and get the fuck out of there.
Early days though. Only been at it 4 months. I figure it's only a matter of time before I get openly propositioned.
I'm a business owner, musician and personal trainer. i also make a little money on the side restoring motorbikes and from blacksmithing, which i love.
semi-/fit/. though most of my time is spent on the PTing.
love my lines of work. i could easily do this till the day i die.
>>35429543
post body pls?
>>35429239
>>35429543
Oh and for reference I'm pretty well built. Short but broad. Shaved head. Basically look like a burly dwarf man but that apparently does it for a lot of women and gay dudes.
The uniform doesn't really show much muscle because it's slightly too big for me but my wrought iron forearms are on display.
>>35429548
>I'm a business owner
>personal trainer
"Business owner" in the fitness community literally means selling t-shirts and workout plans.
well I went to uni and it sucked so I thought I'd do philosophy because who cares, anyway I'm basically a genuis so now they pay me to "understudy" the lecturer.
it's so easy all I have to do is mark papers and fuck around with the projector, also I sell drugs
>>35429589
i'm not in the fitness business, i sell local organic food and things like woolen clothing and candles etc. its a big thing in my country. the amount of money people will pay for flavoured organic milks, cheeses, butters, breads etc is unbelievable. thank fuck for hippies.

Demo bro here
Yes you are completely right, but I'm fortunate to live in the UK where full checks are carried out before any demo job. If need be we suit up in fully contained breathing suits that keep you pretty safe. Never usually comes to that.
Also you really really have to fucking roll around in that shit and smother your face with it to really get the full benefit of its carcinogens. Admittedly theres a few people who are super sensitive but for the most part if you don't disturb it it won't make your lungs turn to soup.
>>35427611
>>35427783
>>35428391
Also true to a certain extent but its really more about discipline and your ability to keep track. You can easily make sick gains like anyone else but for the most part, labourers unfortunately don't do this,they think because they do a physically demanding job that's more excuse to drink smoke and eat fast food on the go.
Take scaffolders, those cunts can't afford to be fat fucks, so theyre usually pretty active and fit guys anyway, any scaffolder you meet will guaranteed be shredded and strong as fuck.
Most construction workers could easily be in top form if they just didn't eat and drink so bad.
It's like any job really, just keep a good balance and be disciplined. You can just as easily become a slob working in an office sitting on your arse all day.
>>35428451
My ex GF actually. Ivonna Humpalot. Top lass she was.
>>35428778
I'm honestly baffled myself. The thing is trade and labour isn't really getting much young blood any more. Most of the old hands are guys too valuable to let go and they know it but they still just don't care.
Theres also a ridiculous culture of drinking in trade.
And that's coming from a recovering alcoholic.
>>35429543
Basically summed up the only people who shop at waitrose...gay men, posh milfs and old bints.
>>35419558
Hmmm, talk to your co-workers and see what they're doing? But heard some crazy stories about construction workers popping pills like candy because of pain and shit. So yeah, watch out for falling into that habit.
>>35430265
Just a global thing then? During the 11 weeks of training here in Chicago, we had weekly seminars on drinking and driving. Sometimes cautionary tales, gore videos, tales of recovery, etc; pushed that shit hard.
I didn't see the connection, but after working this job for two weeks, I want a drink more than anything. Thing is, I already had a day-full of mistakes just installing bolts and a dozen near-falls on ladders with no hang-over.
This better be worth it.
electrician here, some days are easy some days are really tough. That and depending on what type of electrician you are it might be all heavy gear work or all underground but some how we are expected to be a fucking magician.
>>35430371
Only hitch is, my first job is a fresh site, it's the general foreman, a journeyman, and me. We're setting up the temp service so I'd be worried about letting my top boss immediately know this isn't working out.
>>35430506
Any advice for "types" of electricians? I'm stuck in this program for 5 years minimum with mandatory job assignments, but I'm told I can get other jobs when I'm a journeyman. I'm questioning if $50/hr is worth this. Even if it pays less, what are the cush jobs? Someone mentioned maintenance but didn't elaborate on getting that.
>>35430495
I didn't really receive any formal training so much as fell into the job and just picked it up very well as I went along, got some training courses to do soon though.
I think a drink at the end of a hard day isn't a problem really but make it one or two.
I don't drink on weekdays though whatsoever so I can't really say.
Job is definitely worth it though.
Diesel technician
Won't say how much I make but it's pretty decent and I would highly recommend it if you're into troubleshooting-type careers with lots of growth, openings, and good money.
Also you never have to worry about working with women, nerds, weeaboos, faggots, or retards.

Anyone you work with can possibly pass disease, dude. And anyone you meet in your free time too. You're screwed.
