Thankfully my wife has a good job in town, otherwise, I would not be dairy farming.  It's sad that the landscape of the state is permanently changing as each small farm goes under.  It's the best place to raise a family and teach important values.  My days are numbered.  It just isn't sustainable for a farm my size unless the industry makes some major changes.  Thank you for your concern.  It's been a fun ride!

Retired computer programmer since 2003.  And still playing with baseball cards!

Laid off through the end of the month. I hope to return to work May4th. 

Working when business is good over 120 hours a week when buisiness is bad I am lucky to get 40 hours a week. Right not it's bad. I am on 24 hour call so getting a 2nd job does not work for me. 
 

I can only do my trading on my days off which is usually 1 week during the month. 
 

I work in the oil fields so with the oil prices going down and now the virus I see a hard road ahead of me for the next 2-3 years. But thankful I have a job during these hard times. Just need 15 years before I Hit retirement age

during my week off I put in another 80-90 hours working on my place that will be another 3-4 years until I get it where I want it
