Going from a sedentary lifestyle in Cubical Land to on your feet for 12+ hours a day climbing up and down ladders and across pebble covered rooftops all day long can be quite the transition. Despite the new challenges that I have come to face with starting a completely new job that I have no experience in, I am truly enjoying myself as I am learning valuable skills and the culture of the company and construction industry.The day starts around 6am, wake-up, and grab some continental breakfast at the Comfort Inn. Drive 2.4 miles to the job site and start work at 7am. 15 minute
breaks at 9:30 and 4:30 and a half hour break for lunch at 12:30. We work until 7:30 and head back to the hotel and typical go out to dinner or relax and veg out until you go to sleep. Not all that exciting of a lifestyle, but you are constantly busy and the days go by quickly.
