      Hi,
      It can be hard, but not all the time. Sometimes a long day working in the factory can be tiring and other times it can take a lot of brain power! But that is what I enjoy about it, the challenge. I find that if you are interested in the subject and passionate about the work, even difficult stuff is fun.

      Like Tom said, some days are really taxing some are free and easy.

      However anything in life worth having is worth working for!

      Everyone has a bad day! There have been times where I’ve had to work for really long hours or work on a problem for days, but it’s worth it when you finish. On the other hand, the easy times are often the most boring.

      If what we were doing was easy, someone else would have already done it. I think everyone loves a challenge.

      It can be tough when there is pressure to complete things/meet deadlines which required a lot of effort, but this can also be really rewarding when you feel you have achieved something. There are times when it can be physically demanding (long hours, weekends, skipping meals) and other times when it can be mentally demanding (no solutions, unclear of the way forward), but its about how you pull through all of these situations and find the correct way.

      It can be hard. But sometimes having a very busy day is more fun and you feel less tired at the end of the day than if it’s too relaxed. I love doing practical stuff and I use to forget the time, so it depends of what is hard for you 😉
