Yesterday afternoon about 4:00 I was talking to a neighboring rancher by his corral. I can see a tractor coming down the road half a mile away. His phone rings. He has it on speaker and I can tell it is one of his two hired men. At the end of the call he asks are you both in the tractor. The answer is yes. When he hangs up he says as soon as I can find someone willing to work there are going to be changes here. The two of them both rode in the tractor to haul a dead cow off to the boneyard. He had been waiting at the corral for half an hour waiting for one of them to show up. But it took both of them sitting in the tractor to haul off a dead cow. He went on said that one had taken 2 hours for lunch that day. The other had gone to town to get insurance that morning and not come back until 3:00. A little bird told him that guy had been hanging out at the saddle shop/gun shop most all day. He just has to find a good hired man.
