coconuts

In Hawaii they have coconut farmers, like they have strawberry farmers in Watsonville. They have guys climb up the coconut trees with machetes to cut down the coconuts and the trees are 50 to 80 feet high. They do this with out harnesses, with out a net and with out shoes, bare foot climbers going from tree to tree with a big knife it’s amazing. That guy climbing the trees drops the coconut to a guy that catches it and puts it in a basket. You can’t just throw them down cause they might bruise or break from the long fall and hard surface land on a rock or on the head of Samoan guy eating pooie. So there's guy that catches the coconuts and he has a very important role, not to let the coconut break. The boss of the company made them all t-shirts to emphasize this point, it says don’t bust a nut at work. One of the guys that catch the coconuts who wasn't very good at his job wears a shirt that says watch me bust a nut at work. Ironically he works right next to the girl selling cantaloupe and her t-shirt says ripe juicy melons.
