    1. The skerton was (is?) A good entry level grinder that will give you very decent results especially for immersion-type brews. It’s what I started on and what I still use for on the go use cases. I haven’t looked at entry level hand grinders in a while so I guess some developments have happened since I got mine. (Based on a comparison video from james hoffman at the time)

    2. God yes, I tried a friend’s 1zpresso and the difference in both grind speed and effort is noticable.

    I was garbage collector for 3 years as student job.

    Not a single person in the company has done such a thing. We did dumb shit all the time but that wasn’t even close. I feel sorry that you decided that 1 person represents a whole industry

    Running is not as extreme as you think, a lot of it is just carrying on the momentum of the truck after you jump off, other tham that it’s mostly just brisk walking.

    The heavy stuff depends, regulations typically impose a limit on weight but a lot of people don’t follow it. You learn to use proper lifting form quite quickly though or you’ll get a hernia

    Fun fact: the main reason garbage collection is unhealthy is because you spend all day in the fumes of public roads & the truck you’re hanging behind.

    Did it as a student job for 3 years. I was paid roughly 50% more than with all other student jobs.

    Honestly collecting garbage is not even that bad. I got paid to do fitness all day, spending time outside while chatting with my coworker. The people sorting the trash, that was who we felt bad for. They had all the downsides of the job with none of the benefits.
