Story time.
Don't feel too bad. It's tough, but it's rewarding work to some of us. I had to wear jeans, work boots, and a hard hat when I worked for Clancy&Theys, building the operation support building #2 across from the VAB at KSC.
I was 40yrs old. Because I worked for the contractor and not a sub, I did whatever we hadn't explicitly contracted subs to do. Well, some big swinging dick demo crew that helped clean up the 9/11 scene came to take out "portable city" which was what our building was replacing. IIRC the Client was U.S.A. United Space Alliance. Anyways they managed to damage a 40K+? volt electrical line. Guess who had the big chip hammer and full gear mid day in the August heat in a literal swamp.
We worked in that building for months in summer, with the windows in, but no HVAC installed yet. I worked around outside a lot too. I was always drenched like I jumped in a pool within an hour of starting the day. But a cooler full of powerade and changing my t-shirt a couple of times a day, was all I needed.
We worked 7am-3pm. When I got home I didn't have worries or stress. I was tired and satisfied. I slept like the dead. Life was simple and wonderful. I never dreaded being in the heat. I never had heat exhaustion. The guys painting the dino will have their work seen and appreciated by millions. That's rewarding shit my dude.
The only thing I hated was Hurri-con. The clean up and lockdown for those blew goats for a nickel a herd.
