    Hey crappie farmer I live on a farm in Prince George VA. we don't farm anymore either we do lease our land to another farmer though.. Being that you have been a farmer all your life you have experience in all trades .Believe in your self . seek and you will find. .. Tell your son to try and get into a trade school. Just my 2cent worth of advice GOOD LUCK .

    Grew up on my Grandpa's dairy farm in the 60's. All my best to you and your family! When one door closes another one opens my grandma always said!

    Don't like what I'm doing right now. I am up working around some of you fellas right now in Newport News. We are driving cans and coffer dams for Dominion power right now on the right of ways. I don't like working with a crane under 250000 volts. Working 11 days on, 3 days off. Staying in Newport News. I'm at home now until Monday morning. Was told when I was hired that I would be away from home a couple nights every once in a while. Only been home 8 days of the last 40. Got too much left to do around home to be staying gone all the time. This is not for a married man either.

    Farmer, I know how you feel, 45+years for me, 500,000 plus miles of driving to so many places I can't even remember. Every time I hear one of the 9 to 5 office types complain about their job I want to drag them out on some fresh asphalt that's still 180 degrees on an August day humping a 40lb density gauge for 12 hours. Or maybe on a test boring rig on the water in January so when they lean in to break rods and the tip of their nose sticks to the to the rod like the kid in The Christmas Story, yup true story and I screamed like a little girl. Hope things get better for you. 9 months left for me and then on to something easier. Been practicing " Hi, welcome to Walmart". What do you think?
