For the second season I worked for CM Holtzinger Fruit Co doing Quality Control.
Yup QC for apples just like I do Quality Assurance for salmon.
Quality is my middle name! Or just my calling in life.
Everyday, usually starting at 6 am I would clock in and be on my way in my company vehicle, a 2004 Chevy Silverado that I miss very much. I really want a truck now.
When I started in August it would get into the 90's which helped me get a little tan after my summer in ak. An by the last week we'd be gathering around the little fire because it was still only 20 degrees waiting for the apples to unfreeze.
It was great!
Some of my favorite parts are...
All I could eat fresh apples.. duh
ones in the store, especially after they have been in the cold room, just aren't the same
Delicious warm pan and hot chocolate (with straight from the cow) in the mornings
Blasting music in the truck to and from work
Learning how to make tortillas
Learning all sorts of new words and actually having to use them like bruising, worms, and put the back in slower etc..
New friends!
Getting super close with my boss
Yes a boyfriend.. plus a whole new family!
(They totally adopted me and the parents didn't speak any english! But we did our best)
Learning how to milk a cow
Everyday burritos from the Granger gas station!
Learning more about their culture
Alot of laughs and good times
Money
and so much more!
Not only was it a great job, but also another amazing expierance full of awesome people.
