Wow, that sounds like a warm place to work. I can't stand working in the heat man.

I used to have a job in a warehouse, with a tin roof, no air conditioning, and we weren't allowed to open any doors in the warehouse because of safety hazard, while it's 30degC outside. It felt like I was a baking potato in tinfoil man. I hated it! All awhile I was pulling around 1000-2000lb skids of product, with a fucking handjack!

That's why I moved to a freezer job so I'd have some more energy and not get so grumpy.

On the weekends or my time off I usually spend an entire morning or afternoon bking all over the place. I usually do anywhere from 20-35km on my days off.

You feel better too when you're in better shape. You don't get as tired, you don't sleep as much, well I don't anyways. There was a point where I was 285lbs, and I slept 11hrs a night and was awake for only 13hrs or so out the day. I was very tired and unmotivated, and unhappy too.

Now I sleep maybe 8hrs a night and live a more active lifestyle. :thumbsup:
