[quote=Anonymous]I’m an engineer who spent many years working closely with carpenters, iron workers, welders, electricians and laborers on construction sites and in a mill. For my own kid I’d steer them towards carpentry or electrical. They’re all physically demanding but are not guaranteed to wreck your body. Laborer is most likely to get worn out by 40…I’m no expert this is just my observation. They teach you how to lift etc but still it really depends the types of jobs you’ll be on if you’re crouched down for long periods etc. Welding in confined spaces especially looks like one of the very toughest jobs. And hot. They wear heavy protective gloves and jackets. I think that’s why it pays so much. [/quote]
