How about, “oops, I just backed over the auger.” A good all round fixer, semi driver, bin filler, bin closer, grain dryer and grain cleaner operator is worth a lot to us. We have that guy and we appreciate him. Come to think of it, every one is key and when they all contribute with a smile on their face, work isn’t really work at all.

Maybe they are worth $40/hr.

Rent farm for out for $120
Sit on someone else’s combine for $40-45 hr .... priceless!!

Although I've never been around a grain cart I can understand the "God made a grain cart driver" post.

With those kinds of expectations they better be paid well.

The real sight this year was to see the kangaroo rider after about 5 hours after air conditioner quit and temp outdoors 37 -38-39 friggin degrees out. He was fried, just in undershorts and pouring swet. Now that was a sight. That’s when you wanna be wearing your Calvin Kleins.
