What is it like working as a Landscaping or Groundskeeping Worker?
September 2014
Outdoor, Physical, Low Stress.
Landscaping or Groundskeeping Worker:
Pros: It is nice to work outside. The work is normally easy to do, but can be physically demanding. In the spring and fall it can be absolutely beautiful working outside.
If you like cutting grass, building things, and planting shrubs and seeing your finished job, than it is a job for you.
Cons: Seasonality, work it gets slow in the winter with not much to do.
It can suck in the summer when it is 95+.
In the spring and fall you are busy as can be. The summer things slow down a bit depending on the weather, and in the winter you sit at home unless in snows.

Making The World A Beautiful Place To Live.
Landscaping or Groundskeeping Worker:
Pros: I enjoy making a garden, bed, lawn, or hard scape look beautiful. I like to be creative with my work and I enjoy the opportunity this job gives me to use my imagination.
Cons: The lack of communication about time deadlines, and the pay. I would enjoy a raise since I have years of experience and I know how to use every piece of equipment.

Stress Level.
