>>2064625I worked on a farm for 2.5 years. I was functionally a utility guy, fixing water pumps, digging ditches, seeding the ground, building electric fences, that kind of thing.
I loved it. I loved every second of it. I would wake up early in the morning, breathe in the cool dewy air and work twelve hours each day. And after I was finished I would come home, shower, collapse in bed, and sleep more soundly than I had ever done before. The best part of every year was arriving at harvest and seeing your labor come to fruition.
I'm not shitposting when I say it was genuinely the best experience I have ever had working. I worked hard, slept hard, and I had a purpose which took up every single waking second of my life. The pay was meh, but my god, the work was good.
I miss it every day and I want to go back.
