In certain departments, stocking is way more intense than maintenance. Your scrubber machine is self-propelled for goodness sakes.
I guess you've never seen those tires go bald and the thing just kinda sit there spinning and the managers wanting you to shove it around anyway. 'Slot of weight!

Nah I know some of those departments are pretty crazy. Pets especially with all those heavy dog food bags. I've helped out a bit here and there on stuff.

Either way moderately walking around is certainly more exercise than an office job.

Pets is the absolute worst. And yeah, even just standing is better than sitting in the office.

Also I have to agree with you about working nights (anywhere, really). It feels like the single worst thing I do for my health. I'm also currently the whitest I've ever been.

I guess I'm different from you guys, I'd love to work a job with physical labor (looking at getting a job at a feed store), and I would love working nights. Who needs sleep? (Despite the inherent health issues and my love of sleeping, I don't really need all that much to run.)

I've done it for 3 and a half years. It quite simply is not good for your health, period. You might handle it fine, but that doesn't mean it's good for you.

I think everyone's interpreting "walking around for 8 hours" as me saying "my job is super duper hard guys"

no, I'm saying that my job literally entails little more than walking around for 8 hours.

Hat first dungeon on LOZ Wind Waker can go fuck itself. Everything was going fine until I sneezed and Sherlock freaked the heck out and pressed A while I under a barrel. Ugh.

Wind Waker is pretty piss easy. Kinda amazed you're having that much trouble.

I'm not interpreting anything.. Just wanted to state that I worked a trade and at times during deadlines in 20 hour shifts.. It's not fun and even though it technically is a ton of exercise, not that good for your health.. Not saying my job was that hard either.. Certainly there is a protocol to follow through safety code, but nothing too taxing.. There is a reason it's not on the level of a 4 year undergraduate job.. And if you are to make the same amount of money as a career from college, you will probably work twice as much..

Went to the store today and saw a guy with his hands literally filled to the brim with about a dozen boxes of gravy and cheery cordials.

So, I can guess what he had for dessert, but am left wondering what was for dinner.
