Myth: Construction is a simple job made up of people slinging tools.
Fact: This couldn’t be further from the truth. Construction begins long before a single construction worker and their tool ever arrives on the scene.

Construction requires a greater ability to “think outside the box,” as well as in-the-moment problem-solving skills that are not required in many other professions.
