There can be many factors you dislike about working with concrete. You may not like the instability of the work due to the climate or the economy, trucks showing up late to a job, your mud drying more quickly or slowly than you hoped, or working in bad weather. The interviewer wants to hear what you dislike the most to see how you handle challenges. Describe what you do not like about your profession, and give an example of how you keep this adversity from affecting your work.

"What I dislike about working with concrete is the instability of the job. My work depends on the weather, the economy, and how many customers spend money on our services. This profession is unpredictable, but over the years, I have realized this will never change. I now have a budget and stick to my budget and save as much as I can for those days I do not have work. I also have a small cabinet business that supplements my income when I am not working as a cement mason."
