It’s called Longjohn’s Berry Farm (longjohn is a bird creature)

At the farm, they don't tell us how many hours we will be working for during the day until we have worked to the maximum and found out ourselves. Sometimes this is understandable (heavy rain could start at 12 or 1 or 2 or 3 and you just don't know) but most of the time that is not the case.
They also said during the first day that: take breaks as you need them, don't over exhaust yourselves.
BUT they look so dissapointed and displeased when you go on your by law (paid) 12 minute coffee break and your half an hour (not paid) lunch break. If the day is 8 hours long it by law includes 2 12 minute coffee breaks, and they look so butt hurt when I take them, the other Finnish workes don't take them for that reason and even I have started to take my snacks with me to the work area so I can eat them in peace. AND I don't think the foreigners know about the coffee breaks. If I don't know how many hours we will work it is so difficult to plan the breaks and I end up not taking them even though I need them and they are by law for me to take.
I'm happy that one of the Finnish workers started to question how this place is run, cause there are so many ways for the employers to screw people over in small scale berry farms. It is a some what known problem in Finland but not addressed.
So remember to read your collective labour agreement and make sure your rights happen, if you don't act on them your boss probs won't remind you.

Update to the berry farm!
It now has much more than berries dwelling in it. There are strawberries, tomato, peppers of multiple varieties, lettuce, flowers, and potatoes!

Idk how much I would need to be paid for the money to become a painkiller. I just realized 30-40 % of one day's pay goes into the fuel I need to drive here and home. Maybe when the picking season starts I might feel a bit better about this.

This apple tree was sold to me in 1999 as a semi-dwarf Stayman Winesap. It is not semi-dwarf; it is in fact gigantic by apple tree standards. It isn't Stayman Winesap, or even red at all. Because I planted it in the correct spacing for smaller trees, it has almost completely overshadowed its nearest neighbor, a rather nice Golden Delicious. It responds to pruning by aggressively getting Much Larger. The apples are divine. I love her; I'm vexed by her; I hope she lives forever. I'm deeply curious about what I'd get if I planted some of her seeds.
Strawberries, rhubarb, two small blueberry bushes, and Nanking cherry bushes that did, even though their blooming time was cold, set fruit. I will continue to try to acidify the blueberries; maybe add some acid once a week until the soil tests around 5 pH.
