What is a rug?

Rug jobs typically refer to roles involved in the design, production, sales, or maintenance of rugs and carpets. These jobs can include rug weavers, designers, repair specialists, sales associates, and cleaners. People working in this field need knowledge of different materials, manufacturing techniques, and care methods for various types of rugs. Employment can be found in rug manufacturing companies, specialty retail stores, and restoration businesses.
