Thanks, ollie. BTW, it sounds like 'attorney' might work in there, but I'm not sure.

Swamper, you do have to take into account the amount of gas required to mow those big lawns, unless you're not the one paying for the gas.
It's all about being efficient. I pay 15 dollars ever couple of weeks for gas, and get 200 in that same period. Of course, some of it goes for repairs, but as long as you don't hit anything, a mower is pretty hardy.
Yeah, honestly, gas for a mower isn't that expensive. They don't have THAT big of a tank.

Sit mowers do.

*whew* Yesterday was hectic. For some reason, my alarm didn't go off at 4:30, so I woke up at 5:13, and since I bike to work, I had to forgo breakfast in favor of getting there on time.

When I get there, turns out I'm going to milk the cows by myself, so I have to milk a good 4 herds by myself, without any breakfast. Let me tell you, I was crabby. Has anyone else ever had a day like this at their work (not milking all the cows, waking up late and not eating breakfast on a hectic day)?

Well, considering I work the 3-8 shift, generally, no. But in the off chance I work Week-End mornings (like tomorrow, 8-2) I usually skip breakfast and take my break early.

Re: Got a Job

I Ref Soccer games, have since I was 11. Now that is a fine job. You get to work outside with kids at a sport I love. Of course I have only been at it 4 years, so I am not old enough to do some games, but out of the other youth refs, I get the most high-paying jobs. Its all about be professional in my job. Better you do, more jobs you get. Really nice pay too. Really nice.
