I know I have been slacking on my posting this quarter. Raspberry harvest is finally over and the big rush of blueberry harvest is mostly over as well. Today I started working on splitting my first tractor, I have a great teacher in a older mechanic who is walking me through the process. As we move further into fall I'll be working on mostly tractors until next spring when the Korvan rush starts again.
Reflections on the summer:
The past harvest is so much of a blur its not even funny. But I entered it at a intern and came out with a full time mechanic job =D I have really learned a ton over the past few months. My biggest weakness is definitely the electrical but I'm working on that. The number one problem I have worked on so far has been hydraulics. I have become increasingly comfortable with troubleshooting a problem and working towards a fix, which can be difficult when you have a angry farmer yell "warranty" constantly over your shoulder lol. But it has definitely been a good summer, I have learned a ton and had a lot of fun.
