I'm pulling this week...it's the toughest thing I've ever done in my life! I mean, yeah it's easy on the first day, but then again, beginnings always are easy. What you do is you have to pull the female tassle *looks like a tall weed* out of the corn stalk. Once a tassle is pulled out, another will never grow there.....hmmm...well anyway, it's full of bugs, pestasides, sunbirns, cuts from the leaves and corn rash...ick! I get 7 dollars an hour and already, I've made 250 dollars! I really don't thinks its worth it now, it's so hot out, I can barely breathe....I pour water all over my body, I wear a swearter, jeans, and really bad shoes! Also, it's an Iowa tradition for teenage youths to detassle for the Pioneer Hi tech....why did I sign up??? gonk
