I think you hinted at it a few times before but you were a roadworker before whatever it is you do now ?
It's one of those things here , like, complaining about "foreigners" taking all the jobs but in fact, and you do see most of them are , although they're very likely born in belgium, ethnically originating from somewhere else like, probably 2nd 3d o r 4th generation. Same thing for delivery. Almost all postnl and tnt would be. But for some reason i do get the impression they're the only ones still applying ...
Strange concepts ... something i never did although i did spend some time in outdoor jobs like laying driveways and cleaning big greenhouses with diluted acid spray (that was fun lol, dragging a 100 or 150m cable with water in it under high pressure sometimes 7m up a ladder to stand in a small gutter in the middle of those roofs with no safety harness spraying diluted fluor-acid ... the trick is that it like bites off a micro-layer so if you rinse it immediately you get this showroom-shine on the windows and the lumen they get for their (mostly tomatoes) vegetables increases -> bigger yield (in theory))
especially fun when the wind turns in your face and you stand a few metres high static in minus 5 celcius ... good times. But standing kneedeep in the mud laying roads in winter is probably just as much of a party ...
There's various reasons why i'm slightly de-motivated and on top of that no one really looks for 46 year old guys when they're hiring ... life from the Hellgium-side :p
