[quote=aidanbrexit] But Id much rather roof than be a cop in downtown Hoodville-pick any large city.
Yeah, let's see you get on that roof on a July morning when it's expected to hit triple digit temperatures, for the 14th day straight, and then nearly lose your balance
Been there, dont that.
I worked a Summer in Roofing long ago. I also collected rents in some of the worst areas in the Midwest. Roofing never worried me. Bring a gallon of water and stay hydrated, watch your footing.
But being white, strong / large as I am, Getting shot by a gang banger, robbed of the thousands I had on me in rent money, or having the hood explode over stupid BS nonsense or drive by bullets DID concern me.
And I had scares on roofs. But I never worried about not going home to my wife and kids or wished to carry a piece on me for protection to get on a roof.
