I am starting a part time job at a feed store tomorrow. I am kinda nervous since it has been almost a year since I have worked a "real" job. Hubby has sharpened a pocket knife for me so be on the lookout for the I just cut my finger off what do I need to do thread!
Anyone here work in a similar job that could give me some intell on what it is like? Wish me luck that I like it and come home with all fingers firmly attached and no blood loss! |

I helped.out at my great great uncle's feed store when I was a kid.
I moved heavy things. Sometimes I mixed things. It also turns out there's a certain way to mix big piles of seed with a shovel. I don't remember what that way was because I never did it correctly anyway. |

Is it strictly a feed store or a Southern States or a Co-Op?

If you have to help load feed and hay, use your legs and not your back

Good luck on the new job.
Any job that enables you to use a knife everyday is a good one.

I am excited about it. I like that not everyday will be the same. |

I used bag balm on my hands a long time ago when I worked in the dairy/frozen section of a grocery store. |

I worked at Tractor Supply Co in Burlington, NC all through high school... AKA: John Deere and Carhartt Clotjing store with some feed and implement parts in the back somewhere.
Was a pretty awesome way to meet all the local farm girls and milfs. Pulled quite a few numbers out of there. |

I hope you realize t-posts come in different weights, and don't get any creosote on you. Ever drop a salt block on your toe? I could go on...

I worked the warehouse of a small feed store when I was 17.
Lots of unloading trailers full of 50lb bags of shit and hay
Only bad day was one Saturday morning the guy brought a trailer load of deer corn, and he forgot to chock the wheels. I found out when I was wheeling 400lbs of corn onto the dock, and the trailer started rolling away. I dropped the hand truck and it swung down and the handle nailed me right in the foot. Left a nice mark
That and I filled orders. Someone wants 3 bags of sweet 14, I put 3 bags in the bed of their truck. |
