Business outlook
Pros
College Training, paid for while you work. Fantastic apprentice program. Always enjoy new job sites. Work can be demanding physically at times, but it's a great reason that you'll never have to go to the gym again. Toss in a pension plan, a working wage, and a philosophy of work life balance that is 8 hard labor, 8 for family, 8 for rest and this can make for a very satisfying career.
Cons
Infrequent work schedule. Racism alive and well. Some Co workers need to retire. Luckily, no job lasts for ever and the bad ones cycle out real fast.
