I resent the implication that my 9-5 depletes me of resources!

Construction is a wonderful industry for artists. You do labour, which is exercise, communicate with people well outside your bubble, and get paid a damn pretty penny for it!

I am certain that our energy resources are greater than they appear, and that dealing with a shitty customer / manager is much more depleting than work itself.

The beautiful part is that the customer (client) is almost never there, and construction managers more often than not just aren't that shitty, probably because they know you can just leave and get another decent job the next day.

N.B. probably not as good in small cities, or anywhere with low economic movement.

Artist workers of the world unite!

EDIT: it's actually (and quite commonly) a 7-3, which i personally think beats a 9-5 any day of the week...
