When I was 12 I took a job at a girls camp down the road, paid $2.50 an hour and it was my first job. Day 1 the head honcho grounds keeper gives me this huge lawn mowing machine that had 3 big blades in front and you sat on a tractor type seat. It had two arms that came back and you had these brake lever handles on the end of each arm that you used to turn it.
It was an articulated machine and quite a handful for a 100 pound kid, he fired it up for me and left me to get the mowing job done. I was nervous to say the least, took off and immediately drove the thing in between a cabin and a large tree. Wedged it right between the two doing some damage to the cabin, nobody saw and I worked for 10 minutes to pull it outta there.
Proceeded to the soccer field ... Piece of cake, having a blast controlling this thing, mowing straight lines in wide open space. Approaching the soccer goal trying to get as close as possible to do a good job, about a foot away it sucked in the netting on the goal. That pretty much ended my mowing, what a mess! Boss came out and was none too happy, for the rest of the summer I was push mower guy from that day forward, I'll never forget that!
