Well there are different qualities of onion out there in the world- from those that are the right size, shape, ripeness and colour to those that come out of the ground rotten. They need to be sorted by someone....right???

Plus all the mud, stones, sticks and attendant earth that have surrounded the onions needs to be removed before it reaches your shopping basket.

In addition, there are different uses for onions, pickling, flavouring, relishes - you name it. And the onion grader is the superhero who sorts all these out....GOD DAMN IT.....I WANNA BE THAT SUPERHERO!!!

Onion graders are on their feet all day long, they smell, they get covered in dust, work long hours and friends are hard to find.

But where would we be without them?

Ladies and gentelmen......I'm gonna be a legend!!!

Pinchaaaay, working on a farm I have spent many hours of my life over the last year 'grading onions' you can have my job if you are that committed to the onion grading cause :).

Now mate, this may come as a surprise to you but....it ain't all that glamorous :( & I've never had old women and small children thanking me for my hard work in the way that a superhero should have. No one recognizes the sacrifices you have to make to do this work, namely sacrificing going out the next day 'cause you can't get rid of your stinky onion fingers no matter how much bleach, jiff or wire wool you use :(

This job isn't easy, after picking the onions which is I tell you no lie hours of backbreaking work, then you have to peel the onions, which are often covered in mud crap & worm things which is not pleasant :(

Theeen you get to grade the onions- You can't pick & choose ur favourite part of the job, are you man-enough to take it on? It's a big responsibility :)

Who decided to use a Jetta as the basis for a show car?

Who do you work for?

Thanks, Gilly. ;)

It has been rather interesting (in an ouch my eyes are bleeding again sorta way) to note how determined some posters have been to contribute something even when it bears no resemblance at all to the thread starter and perhaps just a wee bit sad what some peeps apparently find interesting or unusual. :rolleyes: :)
