Me personally I would rather work in an african cobalt mine with a heavy iron prison ball chained at my feet, than to work a 9-5 office job ever again.
I'm 100% serious here. I've experienced both physical very demanding jobs and office environments. The most physical demanding job I did in my life was for an industrial cleaning firm working in switched off steel mills. It was fucking brutal. I had to get up at 4.30 in the morning for it. With shovels in our hands we had to go inside the big steel mill furnaces and clean them. But the other co-workers were alright, lots of them were probably all kinds of -cels. They did their work and kept quiet during lunch break. Thats it, hard work but no drama. But having said all that maybe it all depends on the people around you. You can also get unlucky working with real psychopaths doing physical work.
My office job experience on the other hand was making me extremely depressed and even suicidal at the end. All the socialisation, small talk, mental games, psychological warfare, bullying, group-building, never ending phone calls, extroverted clowns...it was all so disgusting. Also keep in mind that office and desk jobs actually bring LOTS of health problems like back problems, cardiovascular problems, mental problems, weight problems etc.
Gun to the head: if you were forced to choose one, what would you choose? What are your experiences?
