I had the best summer jobs. One summer I did the machinist apprentice thing where I mostly swept up the machine shop and had crusty old guys show me how to make simple parts with a manual mill and lathe. I spent the next summer re-roofing historic ranch buildings in Gallatin National Forest with real wood shingles for the park service. It was only like four hours a day of real work and we got to gently caress around and take day trips into Yellowstone the rest of the time. It had its downsides, like the week the truck that was supposed to change the portajohns didn't come, and the only place to bathe was a 45 degree meltwater torrent. But it was one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen, the first place I touched a real live boob, and the place I've come closest to dying outside of some idiot fucker in Army BCT trying to clear a jam while pointing his gun at me. I think I got a little off topic there. Enlisted Army infantry is the worst job btw
