I had a neighbor kid like that come here one time wanting work. Nice kid,I can't find fault with him there,but right up front,I didn't need the help. The youngest boy was still here working with me. The kid said his mother told him to come to me and get a job. Told me what she said I had to pay him and when he could work. Needless to say,I didn't hire him. Like I said,I didn't need him in the first place. I did go get him a year or so later when I needed some calf pens cleaned. The boy pitched manure until his hands bled.
I told my boys that when they applied for a job,make sure they told a potential employer that they milked cows for several years,it would prove that they didn't work by the clock and would stay with the job until it was done no matter what.
My nephew,God bless the boy,he's not afraid to work,but he went to the same auto/diesel college that my oldest boy went to. He finished the hands on mechanics classes,but quit and didn't finish the business end of it and graduate. My son told him that he wouldn't hire him because he quit. He said "Why,I learned all the mechanics stuff?". My son said "Because you quit". How do I know that you won't quit if I give you a big project and you get hung up on something you don't want to do?

I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
