The first time....
I spent a total of 5 years at that farm. I got pissed and quit a coupla times, but the longest of those times wasn't more than a week. But, the first time I worked there, I didn't even know Wally.
A buncha people were raggin' on me that I needed to get a job. I said I'd get one when I could find one milking cows. It was just something I wanted to do again. Less than a week after I said that there was an ad in the local paper wanting a farmhand/milker person. So, I called and got directions and went the next day. When I got there, I jumped outta the car, took a big deep breath and said out loud to no one in particualr "God, this place smells GREAT." I looked over at two of the brothers, Brian and Virgil, who exchanged glances and Virgil said "Ain't ever heard anybody say that before..." Brian just grinned his standard goofy grin and I 'interviewed' for the job.I was gonna be milking cows. I think I started out doing that shift work, workin' all three shifts....I can't really remember.
The only thing I do remember, vividly, is that every morning, at the end of the midnight shift, around 5:00am, this really nice-looking guy would come into the parlor, ask how far along I was and no matter what I said, seem disappointed.
After a coupla weeks of this, it started getting on my dick nerve. I'm not really big on disappointing people, especially very good-looking people whom I don't know. I finally asked Brian who the guy was. Another brother....there were about 7 of 'em. This one was Wally and 'he has nothing, whatsoever to do with cows.' Then WHY does he have to put me through this interview-in-hell every mornin' of my life and wouldja make him stop it, please?
They were right about one thing...this dude didn't know shit about cows. Or so he acted like.....
He did stop buggin' me.
I got pissed and quit, anyway...#1. I go back and this time, I'm gonna be the calf-chick and Wally, the Dwight Yoakam twin, who actually does know how to do more than act disappointed, is gonna be my boss.... Ooookaaaayyy...
