Due to an inadequate number of workers, Rocco Nacino has decided to help in the minor construction work of his house.

In his vlog, he said, "Grabeng shift sa career. So from being actor, gardener, pintor, different types of work na pwede kong gawin dito sa bahay, just to make it faster dahil ang hirap kumuha ng workers dahil sa COVID scare. Parang dalawang workers lang, supposed to be parang more than 10 ang workers ko. So today andito ko para tumulong."

The Descendants of the Sun actor challenged himself to help his carpenter named Albert to finish his house's accent wall. It took them five days to do the fixture of the four-sided wall with bricks.

"Kinakabahan ako kasi mahirap ata," Rocco shared.

"Kasi itong part ng bahay, napaka importante, dahil ito ang accent wall ng labas ng bahay at ito [bricks] ang mga ikakabit natin today at masasabi ko lang good luck sa 'kin kasi hindi ko pa ito nagagawa sa buong buhay ko."

As he experienced bricklaying, he developed mad respect for manual laborers because he realized it is not an easy job--what more if they are tasked to work on an extremely dangerous construction.

"Hands down ako sa mga kuya na gumawa ng bahay lalo na walang machinery," Rocco said.

"Kudos ako sa mga construction worker na nagpupursige na gumawa ng magandang trabaho katulad nito.

"Talagang pinapakita ni Kuya Albert kung paano gawin 'to with ease, siyempre, dala na rin ng experience."
