i don't really know that much about it can someone give me advice

Answer 1

I think they will teach you everything, my son did it for a while, he had fun but one day decided he wanted something different,  Just remember, Find a job nobody else likes and learn to like it and you will always have a job and might even change the way it is done Just think! In the 1950's nobody would believe you could work a gas station by yourself, now they do it everyday because somebody took a job nobody else wanted and learned to like it.

Answer 2

Get a good pair of gloves...wear long sleeved shirt and a hat that keep the sun off the back of your neck...will get blistered badly otherwise.

Answer 3

Hot, dirty and watch those corn husks...they cut like a knife. Remember to wear a hat and sunscreen and drink plenty of water!

Answer 4

You are going to walk through corn fields removing and bagging the male part of the corn plant.   You will be collecting pollen.

It's hot, tiring work.  I suggest you wear long sleeve shirts for corn leave can cut.   I can be slow to walk through the field if there was a recent rain.

Depending on the plant height it is a slow process to move throught the rows without damaging the plants.
