Brick cutting factory aged 17
I was on the last three weeks of my summer holiday working for my Dad's company, so I hovered around different departments doing various bits and pieces.
Full respiratory gear, rubber boots, apron, gauntlets, ear defenders - all to put bricks on a conveyor belt into a machine.
The highlight was changing to the other end of the machine to take cut bricks and stack them on paletts after a fortnight!
Your brain just switches off. It's almost like meditation. You stop having to think and your mind clears through repetition.
I feel sorry for the blokes working there in silence (in reality, deafening loud machines) waiting for lunch to talk to people and doing it for a full time living.

Why do you need to cut bricks?
Surely you would just make them the size you wanted in the first place.
