Shit, let’s go back to 1979. Me and my brother used to push a mower with no motor. You want to talk about hard labor. We started at seven years old mowing yards five bucks a yard that’s how I bought my first Colico football game in 1981. Yeah we worked there were no free lunches

Heck that's an upgrade, my first lawn mower didn't have a motor. Just a spinning blade the harder I pushed.

That's my friend who had to finish up with the push mower in a few spots and trim. I had the riding mower and drove it around the neighborhood to show I had a real setup and talked to the adults to get the lawn jobs. Lawn clippings pile on the trails by the ramp became the BMX jump "foam" pit. That mower/tractor with a side shifter is how I learned to drive clutch (and pop wheelies) at 7.
