So why would anyone work a job outside in 100F heat for low pay when they could work inside for higher pay?
Why do farmers farm...... maybe out of love.... maybe that is all they know........ confidence levels, the reasons people work hard labor outside in all kinds of conditions is far and wide.
When I get home from work- my job does not end, ever. Some jobs, maybe outside work, all duties and responsibilities may end when they leave the jobsite. Some people are wound up different than others.
Like some others on this forum, I grew up very poor in a home that struggled for basics including a roof over our heads. When I was in high school, I dreamed for a job working as a laborer on the state interstates. Steady paycheck, insurance, pension..... wow, what I sweet job as a laborer working on the interstate I thought as a poor kid in my teens.
One of my peers in high school went that route, working for the state interstate maintenance. He is a car guy on steroids. He races drag cars, rebuilds 1950s Chevys, etc. His job, with seniority allows him eight weeks of vacation, he hits every car show he wants, races many weekends. Hasn't missed a paycheck since 1982. I am not sure all high-tech office workers can say the same.
And for note, a book titled "A Leader's Legacy" (Kouzes and Posner), points to research that the NUMBER ONE UNKNOWN INFLUENCE/SUCCESS on most people future job choices, of all things... is their very first supervisor. I never heard that theory until I read A Leaders Legacy.
