TLDW… just enough to think damn… what an awful life these guys have… but I guess when you don’t know no better it’s ok…

Ya got it wrong - take a look - these are good jobs

It’s fucking automated - astounding

just look

15 mins will go by anyway

good jobs vs what lol?

I’d totally slit my wrists if my life was condemned to some shit like that.

I thot it would be fun to drive that little motorboat around in the pulpy lake riding herd on them logs.

WTF - I would do that -

Do those guys look unhappy?

Get back in yer tent

Noise would be the only drawback

ya see how all the later gens grow weaker

How about it Normus?

well for one it would go over my 3 hour workday limit. :slight_smile:

That looks like nice work on a clear, sunny day.

In Oregon, maybe not so much the other 360 days a year.

Everything looks like one big OSHA safety violation too… fuck that shit…

Wow, Billdo’s really triggered by a buncha guys doing real work. WTH??

Safety

they all got glasses and steel toe looks like

Plus if they all get along it could be a better job then a lot of others

It prolly pays half decent

Billdo would survive about 3 hours on a shop floor

he needs a puter and a dark corner

I would guess it’s the amount of danger that the workers faced. It made some fat cat rich without an equitable payoff for workers.

You think those jobs are that dangerous?

Just looks like toiling away in hell to me… I’ll stick to workin with my big brain.

Those jobs are a fucking walk in the park compared to some - you gotta get out more

I don’t know, but maybe.
