If you did any farm work in Australia, I am sure you have experienced those moments… haaaah the buckets, the bins, all those fruits…What remains are the memories, that you will never forget!
You know you’ve done Fruit Picking when…
You dream about fruits floating around
You listened to the same playlist three times a day
The farm dog became your best friend
You’ve never looked worse in your life
You hear “Smokoooo” and you burst out with excitement
You have completely gotten used to spiders
You cannot walk past the fruit shelves at Coles anymore
You have become a pro at handling ladders
You would love to have a cow tail to get rid of the f***ing flies
You can’t take another minute of your boss telling you “it’s too green…too yellow…too small…”
You have stumbled upon the weirdest shaped fruit
You cannot take that same lunch you have everyday anymore
You count everything in bin numbers
You could never imagine washing your normal clothes with your fruit picking clothes anymore
But in the end, you realise it sometimes worst to spend all day sitting in an office…
