It was also the most fun job I ever had but it had the worst moments. When I was in high school I worked for a couple of years for a store manager who was averse to paying grownups to do repair jobs so I got to come in at night and do things like replace dozens of fluorescent ballasts while standing on a wobbly 20-foot step ladder (no way he'd spring for renting a scissor lift). The nasty parts were the jobs where he was averse even to paying me to do the job so he'd get his son to do it for free, and then he'd later have to pay me to un-do the disaster his son had created and re-do the job. I recall for example having to re-tile a section of the store where his son had laid vinyl tiles in about a quarter-inch bed of black mastic and it was oozing all over the place. I had to pull up all the tiles without breaking any, scrape off the excess mastic from the floor, wash all the tiles with mineral spirits, and then re-lay them, all before the store opened the next morning.
I've done a lot of far worse tasks (involving fiberglass, sewage pipes, dead animals, etc.) but they were all working for myself so they don't count as "jobs", right?

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
