hey, im 15 and a half years old and ive been mowing our lawn since i was 4 years old, started ou ton the old sears mower in first gear at half throtle. dad rode with me the first few time to give me tips and to help me. now when i was 14 i bid a mowing job on a cemetray not far from my house and i got it. parents bought a brandnew comercial zero turn mower. (grasshopper to be exact) by the end of the summer i had three other lawns that i was mowing. this year im doing the cemetary again and i have around 8 lawns that i mow now. i pay rent on that mower. i do all the matinece on it and i take care of that mower cuz i konw if it breaks down i dont get to work. i agree with in to deep. i dont know how old he is but i have been told that i act much older than i reallly am and that i look older than i really am, i also get yelled at when i tell ppl my age after ive done something. one thing i dont like is that i work so freaking hard to make my reputation good and then i get in a group of kids my age and im put in the stupid pile. i hate it how like 90% of the boys in my grade dont have jobs and the ones that do dont put forth effort, just because it isnt easy. i was raise "work hard and then you can play later, but not untill all the work is done" also to do the very best i can do and do it quickly. i know that becuae of the way i was and are being raised are going to and already have helped me with my future. thats my tow cents.
