RE: Rambling about Sickness, "Probation Periods," and why we can't Have Anything Nice
I don't want to give too much away but it's just moving things to where they need to go. Walking everything over to its correct container would take too long so you toss what you can and only carry the super heavy stuff. I most likely wouldn't actually throw something that is 50 lbs but if it is 10 or 15 it isn't a big deal to pitch it a few feet. Doing that and carrying the odd heavy thing for 8 hours isn't super easy on a good day. The pay is pretty good though.
I did similar work, I worked as an order selector for grocery stores for 13 years. It was hard on the body but you got a lot of exercise. In the end they went bankrupt and a shitty company came along and bought it. So I quit. It was a stress free life and in some ways I miss it.
