I respectfully suggest that you should avoid the working decks of most commercial vessels, and avoid at all costs any contact with the Concrete industry.
There are many more "jobs" I'd suggest you should avoid, mostly the ones where really important "stuff', (life and death, big money, big status, kinda "stuff"), happens in an environment that is time critical.
Sometimes, there is no time to be "polite" or "sensitive".
What works in an office is usually not what works in the field, or on the working floor/deck.

I work on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier. I dunno, some people might find that a job where really important "stuff" happens.
Granted, the level of tolerance of abusive behavior is a little higher than your typical office job, nonetheless, a supervisor who can't "keep his cool" in my job is dangerous. In an office job, he would be merely annoying or intimidating.
I won't tolerate (and neither will the Navy) unstable, sociopathic, abusive supervisors regardless of my occupation (and yes, I've worked in an office before as well).
