Furniture Movers

My website is about the struggle of the furniture movers living in high-cost areas, such as the bay area. People who are employed as furniture movers as a career face several difficulties during their working lives. The first point is that furniture movers don't make that much money, that is to say that they live a fairly low wage life, centered around the fact that they may struggle to work a consistant amount of hours a week. The second point is that they have a incredibly high risk of injury on the job, which may incapacitate them periodicly, or cut their entire careers short. A third point is the invisible hand that keeps many people in these low wage, non specialized jobs because they lack the education or experience to escape into a more lucrative career field. And finally I look at the effects of retiring after living a life on low wages, limited savings, expenses for injuries that may have been incured, and living off of social security, as well as reasons for differences in wealth in all retired people. In my website, I also have a complete transcript of an interview I conducted with a person who worked during the summer months as a furniture mover, this shares his insights about the profession, as well as gave me a good new understanding of what it was actually like to life as a furniture mover.
