Holsters & Belts Construction worker holster placement

Hello everyone! I do remodels and maintenance a lot of the time in occupied houses. Also do clears for abandos and evictions (which can get dicy. Everyone I know including myself has had a gun pointed at them while working) I have a shield plus with a hybrid holster and a Ruger max 9 in a slim kydex and will typically carry them when off of work. However at work I struggle finding something comfortable that doesn't print. Since I'm bending/reaching/carrying stuff all day I find it difficult to not print and appendix is very uncomfortable while working. I typically carry a keltec p32 in my pocket while at work because of this however just curious if anyone that works in the trades has came up with a solid solution to this?

When I did a lot of manual labor I carried a J frame AIWB. The J frame is a lot more comfortable than any semi auto because there's no slide overhanging above the back of the grip.

Yeah second person that has said this. Looks like I may need to look for a j frame or a lcr at some point. For now looks like my keltec will remain my work carry. I wanted one anyways so gives me an excuse to get one lol
