Mixing Mud
October 4th, 2006I started my first day of work as a mud mixer today. (That’s the common term for brick layer’s assistant). I am now fully aware of why I went to university.
The guys I work with are nice enough though and the money’s good, so until I build up a little nest egg that I can use to move on to bigger and better things, for the next little while it’ll be hard labour.

Your uni degree has taught you well hahaha. I always joke that I should become a plumber or electrician rather than be an engineer. Those other jobs pay so much better and they work on their own terms.

Before my misison, I worked with my dad in commercial construction. We did cielings and walls. I do not miss that.
