[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1404335, member: 25884"] cow pollinator is right in my opinion. I also did AI as the relief tech for many years and would have people who only wanted the regular guy....but it was okay for me to come on sunday cuz "he" needed a day off. It never mattered that much to me, it could have really gotten to me if I let it. I would often even as a kid, take my horse and go off for several hours and spend some reflective time quietly in a field or along a trail and to me that was my time with my "god". Having some native american blood, I have some different thoughts sometimes on a single god, but I was raised methodist and do believe there is a supreme being of some sort. I do try to give thanks for the blessings I have and try to be tolerant of others but I also was one of those restaurant workers that was there every Sunday for the before and after church crowds that came to eat. And you know what, many times they were more inconsiderate than the weekday workers that seemed to appreciate that you were getting their breakfast for them to go and spend a hard day at work. Some of the sunday crowd were real nice, but there were many that acted like you were a lesser life form because they had been pious and gone to church and you had not. I have milked on dairies and the cows need to be milked everyday. We feed on sundays, and with working "regular jobs" we often make hay on sundays if the weather dictates it, because if we don't then it could be ruined by rain on monday or we might not be able to get it done due to job demands. I don't think god will punish us for taking advantage of a day of optimum weather to make hay, rather than let it get wet and ruined because we didn't make it on sunday. And I have seen many do just that, leave it and then it is ruined because the weather has changed and they refuse to make it on a Sunday.
