I wake up at 6am, to walk 30 minutes downtown to a pickup point. I arrive at the construction site and start working at 8 am and finish at 7pm. Like it isn't enough to be lifting heavy things all day, I still have a mental discharge from the boss who's constantly screaming at the thing we don't do wrong. :ranting: I'm then left at the dropping point at around 8pm (that it's the same as the pickup), from where I have to walk back home (about 1 hour, it's harder to climb :blink: ). After arriving home after 9pm, I still have to take a bath, cook, eat dinner, get the stuff ready for the next day, as meals and cloth. I go to bed at around 00:30. And I'm again waking up at 6am to work in a saturday... :tai: If the hard work doesn't kill me, I'm sure the lack of sleep will.
On the other side... It made me appreciate sundays like never before.

Construction workers in our country have it really tough, especially if they're illegal imigrants. It's a slave's life... :not_ok:
I'm still at college, but job perspectives could be better.
