- wollsmoth 4y agoUh, I don't think so. It's a hard job and often involves heavy machinery. One of my cousins works construction and does enjoy drinking but always after hours afaik.
- rpmisms 4y agoContractors who work in the home, not really. Construction workers might crack a beer at work, but it's nowhere near the "builders" stereotype the UK has.
- MAGZine 4y agodepends. drywalling is notoriously a stoner job in north america. other professions, like electrician, not so much since you could end up dead.
- SoftTalker 4y agoPainters and roofers too. All that I know are borderline or actual alcoholics. I don't know how the roofers manage to be drunk on a roof and not fall off, but they do.
- bluedino 4y agoRoofers are easily the roughest crowd. Not sure where they find those guys.

- jhgb 4y ago> drywalling is notoriously a stoner job in north america I thought dry masonry was a stoner job? (OK, I'll show myself out...)
- a9h74j 4y agoFrom what I have heard, something of the opposite problem on the office side of civil service. It is hard to find applicants who have not exposed themselves to weed in the last two years (still a requirement for many jobs), greatly reducing the talent pool for hire.
