[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3215754, member: 7900"] No offense here, Cowcatcher. Just different schools of thought. Examples: Father-in-Law always felt that his time wasn't worth anything and that he would take off from what he was doing to go help one of us "hands" with a job, even though he knew we were capable enough to do it. I finally convinced him otherwise when he quit baling hay to come work on a plow with me and the hired hand just stood around. I asked him just how important did he think the baling was right now. He looked at me, handed me the wrench, and went back to baling. He also told me of an old "Dutch" couple on their farm. If the man had to go get a tool from the barn, he ran every step of the way there and back. Same with any job; do the job carefully, but run for needed supplies or what-not. His wife worked in the same way. Hang clothes carefully, but run to and from the clothesline with the clean clothes. [/QUOTE]
