After School Job
Posted on June 25th, 2007 by Tammy
Did you have an after school job as a teenager? What kind of job was it? What were you paid? What is your best and worst memory of the job?
I didn’t have an after school job because of all the activities I did with school and the small town I am from, didn’t have anything like McDonalds or places like that for young people to have jobs.
The summer before I was a Senior I did work in the corn fields detasseling corn. Good pay, hard work and I didn’t enjoy it. During college I was a waitress for awhile.
That was about it until I got out of college and got a “real” job.
I can’t believe that was over 30 years ago and now I am working from home.
There are corn mazes around and wondered if there were a lot of snakes around them. I’m afraid to go to them (but for some reason, I’m not afraid of hiking even though we see snakes!)
My hubby says he did the corn thing for about one day…it was hard!!
I can imagine that detassling corn would be very hard work.
Corn detassling sounds like very hard work. I would think it would be hot in between the stalks, too.
