Is it normal to get tired at work as an 18 year old?
I’m an 18 year old male and i’ve been working construction here and there to make some pocket money, and i find construction work to be physically challenging, i went to work on Monday and my body hurts since and so does my back which is why i didn’t go to work since then.
​
And whenever i tell a construction worker that i get very tired from construction work they always tell me “you’re 18 years old and you get tired? You shouldn’t get tired at all you should be strong and endure the work you’re so young” i always get these kind of responses from them.
​
And on Tuesday morning my boss called me and asked me where i was when i didn’t show up at work and i told him “sorry boss i wanted to come but i woke up with back pain today” and his response was “you’re an 18 year old guy and you’re back hurts?” As if that should’ve be impossible to happen.
​
So i’m just curious to know is it normal that i get this much tired or is there something wrong with me? Everybody tells me i’m young and i shouldn't get tired and i should be strong, even other bosses i’ve work with in construction tell me that.
