[QUOTE="Till-Hill, post: 1318915, member: 16547"] Started helping my uncle milk cows after school and weekends. Dad was layed off in winter so he did relief milking and helped area farmers after work so I tagged along. Worked cattle, threw hay, fencing for any area guy that needed help before current job. Summer of 2000 before starting high school my current boss was to have back surgery and needed milking help for couple months. (Now he is recuperating on his 4th back surgery and also has a shoulder worked on) It was to be just for few months now 16 years later my main responsibly is Herdsman but on a 170 cow dairy I get in on some field work and window time too. I started boss on DHIA, AI, handle IV'ing, cow records, marketing of cattle. He has put a lot of trust in me and I see myself here a long time yet! Cows I hope are my expertise but I learn something every day and I know lots of people who have forgotten more than I'll ever know. I enjoy working with some of the hardest working and knowledgeable people in the world in my opinion. Vets, Nutritionists etc. I love the cow work and I like the numbers of it and treat mine and boss's cows as a business. It sure is a lot more fun when your making some money. Dairy cattle is my job but Beef cattle and the seedstock business has always been my passion. [/QUOTE]
