Thought you were complaining because you worked in retail - didn’t mean to offend you.
I know about calving in the winter when the snow is so deep you can’t walk though it to get to the barn and blowing so hard you can’t see your hand in front of your face. My dad used to keep ropes run between the house and the barn so we wouldn’t get lost in the dark. We had cattle and horses and they only had their babies between 1 a.m. and 4 a.m. My grandson works in the Texas panhandle on a show goat farm. Their 900 goats had 700 babies last year and only three of them to handle it all. He’s not quite as fond of goats as he once was.
Those who complain about retail work should try their hand at ranching or farming, maybe they would change their tune.
The ropes were always a feeling of calm. The white outs with brutal winds still chill me to the bone. You made me laugh at the timing of those calves...never seem to fail.
No complaints from me. Glad I am able enough and have a job
