(...) in the movie Brucie Almighty that is complete related to this movie:

People underestimate the benefits of good old manual labor. Just think a minute. Some of the happiest people in the world, go home smelling to high heaven at the end of the day.

I also had a good job, working preparation in a metallurgical factory, basically i took care of the buying/sales of steel to build everything you can imagine, and also of inserting all the architect draws on a computer software and I just decided to quit. I told my boss I didn't want that job and I asked him for a downgrade to the production, basically I work my ass out all day, win less and I'm actually happier. I saw the movie 5 minutes ago, so that is not just a movie, I truly believe some persons prefer to be a blue-collar workers because they choose that way.

You are a smart guy. The trick is to know when you're still happy. I was promoted to a supervisory position from staff accountant. I made more money, but I worried all the time. In my previous job, the only performance I was concerned with was mine.

I've worked manual labor jobs for a long time and the best job I will probably ever have was when I worked at a comic book store. Sitting around reading and talking comics beats manual labor any day lol
