I think this is becoming more and more popular. In my first year out of school I was actually working on a salesfloor then got an office job - was harder to sit still at a desk. But I think if you are built for movement it won’t be jarring, maybe just an adjustment on energy at first?
Yeah I like doing physical movement in my day to day a lot more than I enjoy sitting at the desk twiddling my thumbs for 8 hours.
It was very jarring! That happened to me years ago, I was laid off from an office job and really needed to find something. Through a friend I was offered a job in a factory and I took it. It meant having some money coming in, and I thought it would be like living in a Springsteen song or something. It was honestly pretty rough, I was mostly moving stuff around as the low guy on the totem pole and I had a lot of aches and pains. Turns out some people really work hard for very little money, that was the lesson I learned in the months I was doing that.
I think most people do unfortunately. Minimum effort for minimum wage is how I see it.
Nope
Nice!
