I grew tired of all the computer work to make a living and had been doing Construction work kind of part time for years.
I decided to go full time Construction and part time computers.
Now the money was not as good but I was much, MUCH happier!
Busy hands and mind make a happy heart or something like that, they say.
In my case? It is true.
I can also still see the work I put into places 20 years ago where none of my work from the same time with computers is there.
Kind of a nice feeling to be able to point to a building I put up years ago.
Or to do a presentation to a Historical Society about my work on a project to save an old building, covered bridge, or what have you.
I still work in the Construction business to this day and I still think it's the best thing I have committed myself to right up to today.
Only difference is now I do the demolition part of the trade.
Probably the most dangerous part of Construction work.
