52⟩ For you, what is the most enjoyable and most difficult part of this job as Construction Labor?

I enjoy installing various systems into constructional structures specially the electrical ones since I find them very amusing and like to see how they work. The part I find difficult is when the plan changes after half or full has been done. Design modifications usually involve breaking down of a portion of construction and when redone its neatness is compromised

In my previous role I have been mainly responsible for cement mixing, loading and unloading of material and spreading concrete mixtures to dry and form structures. Fine tasks might vary a little but I believe the core duties I have mentioned are all required by the position in question as well and my experience will give me an edge over other inexperienced candidates
