Hmmm....I don't want to be rude at all. Really I'm not trying to be, but I've worked "hard" jobs before. If you consider construction hard. No help there. If something was heavy, deal with it. Work smarter not harder was always my rule. I found that working with others means that you carry on the same responsibilities that everyone else does. If that means carrying large, heavy pieces over to the table saw to cut all by yourself, then that's what you had to do. If the table saw kicked back and you were jutted in the thigh with a piece of Corian 3 times your size and 2 times your weight, that meant suck it up. You know that phrase, "Be a man." I've actually reformatted this. I say, "Be a woman." If can be punched in the stomach only a week after having a c-section, and still keep going (maybe a few tears in private) to do the laundry, the dishes, mow the lawn, and whatever else, well I've just never known a man to have to deal with something like this.
On another note, don't get me wrong. I know there are good men out there. My grandfather for one. He was absolutely perfect. Nothing and no one could ever taint my opinion of him. He was genuine. And he's the one that taught me how to behave as a human being. I just wish he wouldn't have died at my most critical time in life of age 13.
