Hello people! Last week I worked in another casual job here in Ireland. I went to Kings of Leon concert work like cleaner. My job was clean the composting toilets and join the trash. The concert was at Slane Castle, in another city, around 50km from Dublin. We were around 100 people to do this job. We went there on Friday, 27th of May, and returned at home on Sunday, 29th of May.

Saturday in the afternoon we went to the location of the concert. There was around 100.000 people in the place, waiting for the Kings of Leon. Saturday I worked from 1pm to 10pm, it was hard working but in the same time was very nice, some funny situations.

Next day, Sunday, we went to the same place, to clean the area. This job really was very hard, I can call like "Hard work". We had 5 supervisors. And them screamed a lot with us. I can remember only three&nbsp;phrases: "Come on guys!", "Keep moving guys" or "Keep going!". The supervisors seemed dogs screaming with us.

In the end of the day, I was completely tired. I couldn't feel my body.

It was very hard, but in the same time it was good, I could feel like the street-sweepers feel during their jobs. In that job I could improve my humility. And from now on I will greet all the street-sweepers, and I'll think more before throw trash on the floor.


Hugs to all.

Olá pessoal!&nbsp;Na semana passada&nbsp;eu trabalhei&nbsp;em&nbsp;outro&nbsp;emprego&nbsp;informal&nbsp;aqui na&nbsp;Irlanda.&nbsp;Fui&nbsp;trabalhar no show do&nbsp;Kings of&nbsp;Leon&nbsp;como cleaner.&nbsp;Meu trabalho&nbsp;era&nbsp;limpar&nbsp;os banheiros&nbsp;ecológicos&nbsp;e&nbsp;juntar&nbsp;o lixo.&nbsp;O show&nbsp;foi&nbsp;no Slane&nbsp;Castle, em outra&nbsp;cidade,&nbsp;cerca de&nbsp;50km de&nbsp;Dublin.&nbsp;Éramos&nbsp;em&nbsp;cerca&nbsp;de 100 pessoas&nbsp;para fazer&nbsp;este&nbsp;trabalho.&nbsp;Fomos&nbsp;para&nbsp;lá&nbsp;na&nbsp;sexta-feira 27 de maio, e&nbsp;voltamos&nbsp;para&nbsp;casa no&nbsp;domingo,&nbsp;29&nbsp;de maio.

Sábado&nbsp;à tarde&nbsp;fomos&nbsp;para&nbsp;o&nbsp;local&nbsp;do&nbsp;show.&nbsp;Havia&nbsp;cerca de 100.000&nbsp;pessoas no&nbsp;local, aguardando&nbsp;o&nbsp;Kings of Leon.&nbsp;Sábado eu&nbsp;trabalhei&nbsp;das&nbsp;13:00 as 22:00hrs, foi&nbsp;difícil&nbsp;trabalhar, mas&nbsp;ao mesmo tempo&nbsp;foi muito&nbsp;bom,&nbsp;algumas&nbsp;situações engraçadas.

No dia seguinte,&nbsp;domingo,&nbsp;fomos para&nbsp;o&nbsp;mesmo lugar,&nbsp;para limpar a&nbsp;área.&nbsp;Este&nbsp;trabalho&nbsp;foi realmente&nbsp;muito difícil,&nbsp;eu posso chamar de&nbsp;"trabalho&nbsp;duro".&nbsp;Tivemos&nbsp;cinco&nbsp;supervisores.&nbsp;E&nbsp;gritavam&nbsp;muito&nbsp;com a gente.&nbsp;Lembro-me&nbsp;apenas três&nbsp;frases: "Vamos caras",&nbsp;"Mantenham-se em movimentos caras"&nbsp;ou "Continue!".&nbsp;Os&nbsp;supervisores&nbsp;pareciam&nbsp;cães&nbsp;gritando&nbsp;conosco.

No&nbsp;final&nbsp;do&nbsp;dia, eu estava&nbsp;completamente&nbsp;cansado.&nbsp;Eu não podia&nbsp;sentir&nbsp;meu&nbsp;corpo.

Foi muito&nbsp;difícil,&nbsp;mas&nbsp;ao mesmo tempo&nbsp;foi&nbsp;bom, pude&nbsp;sentir&nbsp;como&nbsp;os garis se sentem&nbsp;durante&nbsp;seu trabalho.&nbsp;Nesse&nbsp;trabalho&nbsp;eu pude&nbsp;melhorar&nbsp;minha humildade.&nbsp;E de&nbsp;agora&nbsp;em diante vou&nbsp;cumprimentar todos os&nbsp;varredores de&nbsp;rua, e&nbsp;eu vou&nbsp;pensar&nbsp;mais&nbsp;antes de&nbsp;jogar&nbsp;lixo&nbsp;no chão.


Abraços a&nbsp;todos.
