Builders cannot stop thinking about work in their dreams

Just over 51 per cent of tradespeople say they sometimes visualise doing activities—be it installing a toilet or laying a brick—while trying to get some kip.

Also, six per cent of builders compared their dreams to a "never-ending game of Tetris" —a puzzle video game where shapes must be neatly sorted into a pile.
Elsewhere, it is said that plumbers are likely to dream about pipes, toilets, sinks and showers.While roofers will think about fixing roof tiles to a building.

Chris Other, from Toolstation, which carried out the survey, is quoted by the Daily Star newspaper as saying: "We know the demands of the job can often keep tradespeople up at night—whether it's worrying about a project, chasing payments, or just juggling a busy schedule."
