I have shovelled many tons of chicken shit. I have also felt the stress of my screw-up jeopardizing a multi-million dollar contract the company depends on.
There are many many advantages to a tech job. But shovelling chicken shit is better for your mental health.
- gjsman-1000 2y agoI didn’t say “screw-up jeopardizing a multi-million dollar contract” shouldn’t cause stress. I totally understand that. I’m talking about people offended just by needing to show up and function in a normal office. If someone is offering me $120K; I’ll physically show up in a suit if you want.
- bryanlarsen 2y agoTraffic jams are also more mentally stressful than shovelling chicken shit.
- gjsman-1000 2y agoYou still have to drive to work to clean up chicken shit, unless you live with your employer.
- bryanlarsen 2y agoGenerally no traffic jams in places near chicken shit.
