keep it general not to dox yourself and whatnot, just wondering if there’s anyone else adopting the fielder method. and also what’s the worst thing you have had to pick up and carry somewhere? for me it is a toss up between upright piano, heavy treadmill and slab of granite.

    I used to, mostly construction materials. Worst experience I ever had from a lifting perspective was when some dickhead made me carry like 40 bags of concrete 50 feet each rather than moving his truck right next to the pallet where they were sitting and then had the gall to complain to my manager when I gave him the side eye for it. Luckily my manager was cool and told him to piss off lol

      That’s always fun. I only did one job in concrete and decided that was enough for me. I once, though, had to carry 8 5 gallon buckets of paint across a street and around the corner because the boss wouldn’t let me pull my car onto the sidewalk and there was no parking where the job was.
