I had an uncle one time fired me from the farm on the spot, because Through the learnings I received from FFA class. he came in around dinnertime and ask me to go finish working the corn field he was working on.
I seen what he did, and he was old school working the soil just enough to to loosen the ground,
Corn was up maybe 4" so I dropped the worker another notch as per FFA ,just covering almost to the tops.
Well a couple hours later he drove up in his big Buick. I was almost at the other end of field so I just kept going, made my turn and here he comes runnin full speed towards me waving his arms.
I had no idea what was wrong so I kept driving towards him. got within ear reach, and he screamed stop !!
Wanted to know what the H$$L I was doing tearing out all his corn.
He made me walk home,So Mad he wouldnt let me drive the Buick to his house half a mile away
So I walked past his house and another mile home.
He never told me but he told my Dad later that my corn did a lot better than his. A year later he was dead.
We never got the chance to reconcile. I didn't go to his funeral. I just thought he still hated me.
Still think of that once in awhile.
As far as your DAD ?
Live every day as it was your last, cause someday it will be.
