> It messed with my back though

I’m an MR tech. We see a lot of truck drivers and builders. Bad backs do seem prevalent in those professions.

Being overweight seems even more likely to cause trouble.

Basing views off the people I see rather than actual stats is bound to be problematic. Eg does every rugby player have a bad neck? Does every soccer/football, netball and league player have a torn ACL? Every golfer has a bad elbow?

We don’t scan the healthy truck drivers.
