Truth be told, this job is very demanding on the body. You wouldn't believe the things that hurt after standing for that long. In the four days that I've worked I've got 1 mini bathroom break (and that was because I was running boards and new flagger came and asked what he was supposed to do. I said wait here until I pee in the bushes

). The rest of the time you stand. Even if you want to eat!!!
