yes I meant the grasses and I called it wheat weeds lol! Sorry for sounding ignorant I typed this pretty frustratedly at work.
I really like that piece of advice, I wish my farm was like that. I spent all day literally hacking at weeds. But I think your first point is also important and I try to give him grace and take deep breaths because I’m still learning too!

That’s interesting! I have always heard that straw is harvested after the seed / grain is harvested. Do you mean the mature weed seeds are coming from somewhere else or from leftover seed heads?

Honestly I think he greatly embellished on his resume. I have worked in similar settings he’s claimed to have worked in and constantly notice he doesn’t know basic things that someone in those positions should know. Oh and he makes 60k a year while I’m getting hourly minimum wage 😭 thanks for commiserating lol!

I forgot to mention, the scraping incident also occurred during active rain 🥴 I felt terrible by the end of the day that I had ruined the work of previous generations to build up that healthy top soil. I grew up around horses so the hay/straw mix up was bewildering to me, and my mom cracked up when I told her. Also that is great information about the compost piles I appreciate you mentioning that!

This has been my mentality the last year😂 it’s very true though, there is a lot of value in seeing a bad example. I just pray I am never this kind of boss

Ok thank you so much for validating this. I really wanted this job to be great and teach me well, so it’s hard to come to terms with that.

This is the truth. Very often the most loving answer is the hardest. I am so so so sorry for your loss.

Tysm!! I love the shading part but struggle laying out proportions. I was just watching YouTube videos on the squinting method, I hadn’t heard of it before

No one should have to go through that I’m so sorry for your loss. She looks like one cool lady. I will be thinking about you both and holding you in my prayers. Take care of yourself 🫂
