I moved furniture for 2 years and delivered appliances for 1 year in my early 20s in order to finance my shareware business. There is a bleakness to physical labor jobs that can't be understood by someone working mental labor jobs. It's not just the low pay, the early/long hours, the dangerous environment, the constant barking of orders, the hustle and bustle of being pushed to work 10% faster than is sustainable, the staff of ex-military and ex-cons (some of the most disciplined, hardest working and nicest people I've ever met - as long as you don't cross them). It's the fact that you have to do this tomorrow. And the next day. And the day after that.. as far forward into the future as you care to speculate. Knowing that 100% of the money you make goes to living expenses, children and debts. That any portion you spend on basic recreation like beer will be frowned upon by people who don't have the willpower to work as hard as you do. You have to develop a tough skin and shut down your conscious mind, going into another place in yourself in order to make it. I watched dozens of people try to do it over the years and most of them never made it more than 2 weeks. By the end of it, I learned that the only winning move is not to play. By working there, I had taken someone's job who needed the money more than I did. What's worse, is I had lowered everyone's pay by increasing the size of the labor pool. I had squandered my own potential. The only good thing to come from that job is it made me realize that I must dedicate my life to ending labor as we know it. We need to automate these jobs and use the free capital to fund a moonshot reeducation program. Give everyone the opportunity to use their minds - not their bodies - for income and move to a UBI to liberate the unlimited human potential that we steal through wage slavery.
