Rolling ceilings with extension pole - hard graft, plus making everyone else's work 'invisible'. No thanks!
On a flat, square surface with easy cuts, yes maybe, but some of those packs weigh a bit!
Aching shoulders/arms and neck and plasterboard dust in eye!
Gaffer has responsibility and buck stops there! Scheme provider - don't know really.
Great in good weather!

Bottom of the tradesman ladder ....painter definitely .
though if the painting is bad on a job it makes everything look bad.
when I left school if you wanted a trade you had to do a citb test that determined what direction you got pointed in
top billing was the sparky( how things have changed!)
next up the plumber
bottom of the heap if you couldn't write your name yep the painter.

Indeed. It's funny though how often you hear electrician's have it easy which is why I played 'devils advocate' earlier.

Lagging, if you can even class it a trade.
When I was building yachts there were these guys known as 'bonders' who basically just stick the decks to the hull and the bulkheads to the deck, like sealing a bath but without the precision, and the company paid them the same as the sparks.

Or GRP laminating - you need 2 rollers (which the company provide) and a bucket of goop. Place a bit of GRP mat in the mould, dip the fluffy roller in the goop, roll it on the GRP mat, then roll it again with the metal roller. Wax on, wax off. Repeat.

Site I did recently got a guy in to do the silicon. Apparently he was paid £2 per meter. There's a fair old amount of meterage by the time you go round all the windows and doors of 24 houses!
boards ars 20kg each but they use mini acro's or whatever you call them
then impact driver and screws.
easy
Or screw gun with auto feed...even easier...

Not really trades but one site I worked on there was a lift man. He just stood in lift all day and pressed the button to what floor you wanted.
Another site had a big road sweeper that just went up and down the roads cleaning. That looked pretty relaxed.

Apparently there was one of those on a site I worked on. I didn't actually see him but my mate who started the job before me told me about him.
My mate thought he was some kind of lift engineer to begin with, but it turned out he was just a really lazy labourer.
I never saw the guy because he got the boot before I started.
