[nomoreemokid]

I'm a farmhand ...What exactly am I supposed to be doing?

Comments

[cooksforladies]

Tending to the animals and crops, mostly. I've never done it either, but it shouldn't be too bad.

[nomoreemokid]

Tending to them how? Like feeding and watering?

[cooksforladies]

Yeah, something like that? [oh god, he's a city boy, he doesn't really know]

[nomoreemokid]

Okay, well at least we know what we're doing.

...What do they eat?

[lady_girasol]

Whatever th' boss tells yer to do, I guess? [Yaaaaawn.]

[nomoreemokid]

Guess I should probably figure out who my boss is then.

[lady_girasol]

Whoever's hollerin' for yer the loudest, nya ha hah!

[clarklike]

Chances are you'll be doing a lot of work around the barn. Menial tasks. Fixing fences, feeding animals, moving stuff, haying.

[nomoreemokid]

Okay, I can do that. Doesn't sound too bad. What's haying?

[clarklike]

The right time of year to bale hay and the like. If you're on a livestock farm, chances are most of it's going to the animals.

[nomoreemokid]

...Bale? There are farms besides ones with animals?

[practicalslouch]

For today, I'd learn about the job. Don't think anyone's gonna blame you if you don't get things right on the first day.

[nomoreemokid]

Yeah, that's kinda what I'm trying to do.

[practicalslouch]

I can tell. Never been to a farm before?

[nomoreemokid]

Never. I'm a city kid.
