DUSTY, Is just one of the aspects of coal mining. Do not forget wet from head to toe, either from the top like falling rain or big pools that must be pumped into sumps. Your cold if you are by the slope or sweating hot if you work along the face or belt line. It is a difficult life and I have seen many get injured, crushed, and disabled for the rest of their future. It is a job and people must have energy. However, If you are young, experience other jobs first. This should be a last option. I am saying it is honorable for American miners, however, it will make you a hardened man or woman. So much, that you may not like yourself in the future for all the aches and pains you live with day after day.
