In order to build beautiful and large-scale constructions, the silent contributions of supervisors, engineers, and construction workers are essential. Sun, wind, and dusty roads are not only the characteristics of the construction profession. Let's listen to the stories of these individuals at BEN Construction Company to better understand their contributions.
Construction workers from Ben Construction Company are working on the construction of the Dong Nai riverbank project.
The construction industry always plays a significant role in the development of each country. The places where construction engineers set foot are often barren lands, full of rocks and stones, and when they leave, those lands are illuminated with lights and gradually filled with homes. Perhaps few people know about the quiet moments in the construction industry.
Let me share a few lines of thoughts from N.D on the Construction Workers group as follows:
Supervisors, engineers, and workers, once they are on the construction site, all become dark and dirty due to the scorching sun. If they are working near the city, they may have time to go for a haircut, but those who work in mountainous areas have no choice but to let their hair grow long and dry for months. During the dry season, some construction sites lack water, so after taking a shower, they use that water to wash their clothes. It's tough.
Meanwhile, your homes have a few tarps for shade, which is considered good enough. When it's hot, it becomes suffocating, and when it rains, it leaks and gets wet.
BEN Construction engineers don't mind rain or wind to meet project deadlines.
Working on construction sites is tough, and everyone knows that it's a male-dominated environment. With few women around, there are moments of loneliness and homesickness during free time.
Construction workers can also be quite romantic. They engage in poetry, folk songs, and traditional operas. The songs about their homeland warm their hearts and bring people closer together. Perhaps only those who are far from home can truly understand this.
Indeed, those in the construction industry always carry a sense of uniqueness. It's reflected in their rugged appearance and free-spirited personalities. This uniqueness comes from years of training in classrooms or from the youthful months spent on construction sites.
Speaking about his chosen profession for over 9 years, a commenter named Huy Vu says, "Construction workers spend their lives building homes for others, but they may not have the chance to build their own happy home. They dream of having a home they built themselves and a loving partner, but perhaps they will never have it all."

Supervisors, engineers, or construction workers, here and there, everywhere is their home. Their desire is to spend moments with their families, their wives and children... but sometimes, that desire seems far-fetched. Their lives are intertwined with dust, smoke, construction materials... and even dangers.
To have those beautiful roads, tall buildings, it requires silent contributions, great dedication, and sacrificing their youth at the construction site. Dust from the roads, construction site dust clinging to their shoulders, hands covered in calluses to build large and beautiful structures.
During overtime work, they long for a family meal, long to hear the laughter of their children, but they only have their fellow workers to share joy and sorrow. When they miss home, when they have to work during holidays, that feeling of loneliness breaks their hearts.
