My wife worked for 20+ years for a university in a research position. Was well liked and respected. Her job was getting very stressful for a number of reasons and she wanted to retire (at 63). I told her to stick it out to 65 (to get on Medicare). She continued to be miserable so I told her if she was that miserable to find another job. Figured that looking would take her mind off her then current problems. Ended up getting hired for a similar position at another place. She was ecstatic. Benefits weren't quite as good but money was a little better. Loved the job.... for about a month. Problem was that she didn't have the credibility and esteem that she had at the other place. Was looked upon as a rookie (despite her experience) and never accepted into the work cliques. They micro-manage her and constantly question everything she does. If she does something, it's "why did you do that?". If she doesn't do something, it's "why didn't you do that?" She's probably just as miserable as before but.... closer to retirement. :D
My point is that the grass is always greener on the other side and it depends upon how bad the current "devil" is as to whether a job change is worthwhile. On one hand, she'll never know unless she tests the waters, but she may end up wishing she'd have stayed.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
