For me it was detasseling corn. We went into the corn fields at 5:30 or 6 a.m.and got soaked by dew on the plants, then roasted in the July sun. There were scratchy weeds, it was dirty and boring. I did it the summer I was 15 but only that summer. Told my kids that everybody should detassel one summer because it would make every other job they held look even better,
It's not a particular job but the surroundings and circumstance. I was an office manager\ dental assistant for 36 years for the same dentist and then I had to go to another practice for the last two years of my career. The office was full of negatism and drama. It was miserable to go to work each day.
