The video by Minnesota-based Carpentry Contractors Company, titled ‘Framing Houses in Minnesota’, has garnered nearly a quarter of a million views.

Over the course of the video comedian Mike Earley describes the jarring transition into a construction career, the personalities you meet along the way and all the physical tolls like the sharts and “that laugh people do when they almost die”.

Despite Earley’s deadpan delivery, the video is also suprisingly informative about getting into the trades as the industry hopes to infuse younger blood in the coming years.
