Ya know, when I retired, every dream that didn't involve pussy was about construction. 90% were about the shit times. 10% were about all the giggles and shit working folks do to make their life fun. Come October 1st, it'll be 12 years I've been retired. Don't miss it a God damn bit. Don't dream about it, either.I guess when thats the only life you knew its hard to let it go?

I do miss those gut buggy burgers off the roach coach, though.
Got into union construction when I was 18. Could have retired at the tender age of 49, but '78 was such a bad year, I didn't work enough hours to get vested.How old were you when you joined?
For my dad he left home at 17 and joined the air force to get away from his family..

People have the wrong ideas about unions. We're all fat, lazy fucks. Sometimes. Most of us bust our ass day in and day out so that the boss makes a good profit. If he makes a good profit, he'll bid the next job right. If he bids the next job right, I've got more work.
You think union folks don't work? Check out my EEGs, MRIs, CATs, and Xrays and tell me this old hippie didn't work hard. How else can a pot smoking, long haired hippie make a good living? Ya sell your body and skills like a cheap whore and have fun doing it!:)
The price we pay for living is that we have to bury the dead. Sucks.My man folks died last decade, we (mostly me) just rely on others here for guidence, and they are dropping like drop flies. Sucks.....I feel puky and sad.
