My last farmhand(age 45) now gone, whom I couldn't get to show up for 4 hours every other day, just got a call from a friend who's family needs some help.
Farmhand told me it would require $86k, a company truck and medical or he won't take the job. (It's a day-labor type gig).
I paid $18 an hour, 1099, and told him he could work up to $1,000 a week for at least a full year. $70 every other day was all I could get out of him.
Go ahead and tell the kids and grandkids
'You can be anything you want to be.'
What they're hearing is:
If I can't be an astronaut I don't need to be anything.
If you don't like the work
QUIT LIKING THE WORKERS!
We raised them.
Have some guts and tell them they aren't coming to Thanksgiving if they're slackers.
Take the blame.
We raised them.
WE let them have these work ethics.
It starts and ENDS at home,
End it.
