I grew up on a dairy farm, so I've been around cows most of my whole life. If the workers are mistreating their cows (and it probably does happen sometimes), management needs to get involved to stop it. It's as simple as that. With that being said, I work for a company that is (as of the last three days) doing a lighting upgrade for a local dairy that has about 1200 cows. While we are working, we are right on top of the cows in a bucket truck installing the lights or with the cows right beside us with them on the other side of the stanchions. It's really funny that they are quite curious as to what we are doing and it appears that they watch us for their entertainment. I will tell you this: We have to work in the sun in high temperature, high humidity and no breeze. We have to assemble the lights in a trailer with the trailer sitting in the sun, again with no breeze. While we hit the water jug pretty hard, there is a big push to get this done, so breaks don't happen too often for us humans. At the end of the day, our clothes are soaking wet from sweat. The cows? They get to eat about as much as they want, get to drink as much as they want, have probably about a hundred 5-foot fans pointed at them, and they get to enjoy water misters that are pointing at them to keep them cool. Then, whenever they want, they go lie down in clean sand that is provided for them in their stalls. They look quite comfortable and content. Maybe PETA should do a clip about how us humans are are getting mistreated....

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
