Quality of life! No safety harnesses high death rate, little to no knowledge of accident cause due to work practice saw high suicide rate due to work place accidents and injuries, no welfare system, this was around the time of the Great Depression, a lot of these jobs were created to put returned servicemen and women into paid employment. This was a very very hard time. People did not live to the ages they do now.

Really like these old videos showing how things were done in the earlier days of the automobile.

Thanks for posting. It's interesting to see what sort of manual labour goes into the building and maintenance of the roads we drive on.
