Would you take a permanent farm job? Agriculture related not cattle.

I like being outside all day but the job is really hard on your body and the it's barely above minimum wage.

    Pruning on a platform isn't hard I used to do ladder pruning in school holidays and that wasn't even hard

      That's just a stock image, I've been doing fruit picking, clearing brushes, removing weeds, doing greenhouse installations etc. Will be planting trees next.

      It worked in my early 20s but the money is shit and not viable for long term

      That's what I'm getting, on one end I was unemployed before getting this gig so the money has been more than welcome, people are chill and also have free housing. On the other end maybe it's better to look for something else instead of tying myself to this.

    Yeah though it's probably a lot different here than most places, I make around $25 an hour during the summer doing picking and then a couple weeks later final harvest. If I was full time it would probably be around $22.

      That's not bad, honestly. I'm sure it's hard work, but seems doable financially in a low cost of living area.

      You earn as much as a fast food waggie and don't have to deal with all the bullshit.

        You definitely don't earn as much as a McEmployee. Ag migrant labor is probably the lowest paid position in the entire US; it's below federal minimum wage.

                Keep on responding "I didn't ask" like a moron, thinking you're so cool. There's NOTHING you can do to stop me from replying.

            Dude I make 18.50 an hour working in the receiving bay at a Walmart. How on earth are you still making minimum wage in current year? Literally any internal corporation will hire you to wagie for double that.

    I would absolutely do it, but because I live in a nice country full of kind, intelligent, honest people the concept of safety is, so to speak, "for gays". This dude I responded to once showed me how to refill a water tank and he did so while balancing himself and this huge tank on the edge of the side panels of his truck - all while wearing sandals. I was supposed to do that. Then I was supposed to take care of cows, shovel shit etc. the sanitary conditions were nonexistent and there was no kick bar behind the cows, so I basically had to get behind there and hope that the cow wouldn't kick me lol
    everyone here is probably under 80 IQ, one time there was this painter doing a job at home, sanding paint off the walls, lots of duts... I was like dude do you want a dust mask (this was before Covid so don't give me shit), you're going to breathe all this shit. And he looked at me like "whudduh think I'm sum kindsa gay???" and laughed it off. Then he complained that a colleague died of lung cancer in his 50s and "it's just like that"
    Basically everything related to manual labor in this country is intensely unsafe, with shit standards (if you actually want to do a job that doesn't collapse in the next year you're a moron, just do it quick and make it look like it works) and only pays well if you cut corners and act like a turd like all the other Black folk who work here.

        I would tell but I want people to guess. I'm making a checklist of countries like this so I can avoid them if I'll manage to move out.
        My brother's dishwasher broke a while ago and he found out that he guys who installed the kitchen decided to hammer the screws in because it was too much work to actually screw them.

            one time I brought a small tripod to a smith and I asked him to make a joint to the tripod, basically a copy of a baseplate for a quick-release that would screw onto the tripod. I got him an example piece of what the thing should look like, but with a 1/4 thread in, got it?
            he riveted the head of the tripod to the piece I gave him

            I brought a Dovo straight razor to a guy who was supposed to be a professional, old dude. I told him it needed to be resharpened properly because after many years of wear I couldn't strop it back anymore, and my stone was inadequate. he very confidently said he'd take care of it
            he ground it on a belt sander

              this reminds me of the Russian tool repairer my parents hired in Australia who was a former missile technician in the Soviet Army. We had a livid customer return a table saw this guy had not bothered to put back together properly and he just shrugged his shoulders and said nothing was wrong with it. Fired him and he sued us saying he was sacked because he was called to jury duty.

    those jobs don't exist, they have all been mechanized. your picrel depicts people standing stil manipulating lightweight instruments, they are not "working hard" or physically exhausted at the end of the day.

    Menial jobs that are hard should be paid by the result.. Pick 1000 fruit for 1 dollar each? In a day? Good on you, here it is. Shear 500 sheep? Heres 2 bucks each I hope you can shear another 500 tomorrow. And just maybe you will have the means and the knowledge to start your own

      Manual jobs used to be compensated like that before unions got involved. Now it's not about how good a worker you are but how long you've been in the union.
