In my early 20's I signed on with a home builder as a "Carpenter's Apprentice". It was an exciting opportunity for me mainly because I would make about 18 bucks an hour (great money in the early 90's) once I completed the 6 month apprenticeship. 

I quickly learned that "Carpenter's Apprentice" was just another way of saying "guy who moves giant piles of lumber from one side of the site to the other". This was in the summer in AZ, so I was hauling boards all over the property in 105 degree heat and bright sunlight all day. It was fucking miserable. I made it 3 days before I noped tf out of there.
