Scraping cow manure off a concrete corral floor outside the veterinary testing barn of a large dairy farm. A lot of the cows were under the weather, and it showed in their poop.
Holding cows by tongs in their nostrils while another cowboy tagged their ears.
Picking okra in searing heat. The okra leaves would rub against you and sting like a nettle.
Spraying some kind of cleanser on popcorn ceilings.
Assembling truck parts by hand on an assembly line.
Cleaning out apartments in a slum after tenants moved out.
Folding and refolding sweaters about a million times a day at a department store during the Christmas shopping season.
Manning the French fry station at McDonalds.
Running the chains at junior varsity football games.
Cutting stair treads from scrap carpet in a sweatshop when I was 13 years old.
