ppl are weirdly making fun of me for calling my library shelving job physically intensive? Sure, some library jobs aren't, but I was a spry, active 17 year old and it left me exhausted every day. I'm saying it was physically intensive because it *was*.

maybe some people don't know that books are really fucking heavy

Yeah seriously. When my family moved last the books went into the smallest boxes the movers provided. They were still fairly hard to lift, and I was in pretty good shape at the time. Paper is dense af when it’s packed tight.

This sounds like the predecessor to Amazon warehouse jobs today.

I've also worked at a warehouse! Or rather, some of my days working at a factory were spent working in the warehouse. Warehouse days were about as physically intensive as my library job.

I work circulation at a library and our shelvers work their butts off.
