A farm can.
That's funny, I got my part time job because dad suggested it--he said it was either find some part time job or he would find work for me around our place. I knew he would have me filing blades of grass with a nail file, so I got the job at the farm. Best thing my dad ever did as far as teaching me a work ethic...and I have great memories of there...later I worked in the market as a cashier etc, and became really close with the family. The job kind of grew with me.
