I’m semi-retired, but work 3-4 days a week outside at a local country club for $13/hr. - full health care - privileges - meals - and tips. Lots of tips.
Working outside in the summer in FL is tough. I drink probably 2 gallons of water per shift. When you get home and just peel your clothes off and throw them in the dryer then head to the shower, you know you’ve done your work for the day.
I like hard work. I feel it keeps me young (at 60). I wear jeans that I brought w/ me to FL that I wore at PSU in the 80’s. I can still hit it nearly 300 yards at times.
Hard work is good for you - but, YES Hydrate.
Whoops - washer, not dryer. Don’t want to dry dirty clothes. They’ll smell even worse.
“I drink probably 2 gallons of water per shift.”
Absolutely, sounds like a lot but it is not, it is absolutely necessary, along with salt intake and potassium. I eat a lot of bananas for the potassium. I found the potassium intake is a huge advantage.
