I'm so glad I can focus on the work I wanted to do with the constant drilling of the renovations. It's been 5 weeks of this! Supposedly, this one will be finished at the end of this month.

I don't believe them. The last renovation that I had to deal with (which finished three months ago) lasted for about 4 months.

And no, noise cancelling headphones aren't an option because that doesn't stop the other sensory issues that come with the constant drilling, like the vibrations of everything around me.

I do try to be understanding of this shit, but I also just feel tired of it because it's like... never-ending. On top of the fact that I can't escape construction anywhere because it seems like the whole city is under construction everywhere I go.

And most of it isn't for, you know, a good reason! Like fixing infrastructure that is old and broken or making things accessible. It's for developers! And then most of it, if it's residential, gets snapped up by landlords (who use much of it for AirBnB).

@whatanerd they don't stop that much of the noise anyway. I know cause we had to deal with a lot of that kind of noise.
