Does anybody (here) pull udders with milk squirting into a bucket? I'm not seeing any hands raised. Farms are modern by choice today. Want a pipeline system? You can do that. If you are an Amish man you can pull udders and squirt milk into a bucket if you want. The only thing is that the milk winds up in a cooled bulk tank.
Working 7 days per week may not be your thing and it is not my thing but for some that is A-OK. Some people such as my deceased neighbor just could not handle idle time. He also was not a people person so most jobs other than being a grave digger was going to be uncomfortable to do. This is a major driver for a man, woman, or couple to spend most awake moments in the barn or in the field. They have trouble functioning at the farm supply store or farm implement dealership.

When will enough be enough? Too many people with idle hands will be the end of society as we go into the future.

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
