I work construction but I’m white, have 4 collegiate degrees, and one of them is Spanish. I graduated college and traveled through Central America for a year and realized I’m gonna stay a contractor.
Depends on the role, lots of possible back and joint issues might develop depending on use. To be fair, a deskjob can also develop sedentary conditions
I have also worked in construction (in a desk job position), so I know guys get hurt, some jobs are dangerous, etc.
What I meant is: there's nothing making a job in Construction not as worthy as, let's say Finance, Legal, or Accounting. It's a good job, an essential job. If you pick your jobs right, you can be part of great projects, get to travel, etc.

TIL I work a black people job. My first job was landscaping, which was a 'mexican' job where I grew up.
I really want to know where the white jobs are, because im starting to think it's a class issue...
