Dirty Jobs and a life lesson

Dirty Jobs,, in case you haven't seen it, is a show on the Discovery Channel where Mike Rowe gets to do some of the dirtiest jobs out there. Been a totally gross show, my boys, including Fred, just love it. We have watched this guy crawl through sewers, spray for roaches and remove sperm horses and bulls. Ugh.

Today, as I was cleaning out the car, I came in for a breather and some air conditioning.

Mike Rowe was working with a wrecking crew this week, knocking down walls, etc. He paused to talk about the people passing by this soon to be demolished building, on their way home from "clean" jobs. He mentioned that one woman was stressed at work and was getting married the following week. He said she was end the end of a frayed rope. So they invited her up to the building and allowed her to throw brick through glass windows and then let her sledge hammer some walls. After a little while she was feeling much more relaxed.

Rowe closed by stating that the people that worked for the wrecking company were very laid back, stress free people.

Some days I think I need to get a physical job. Or.....I could just go to the gym. Not quite the same, but hey, I think I may have a hard time breaking in to the world of demolition.
