Especially when you plan ahead...space it out...then a deadline to get it done! Same as your farms. Then one of our chains stores has been remodeling all their stores. A team goes in for a 4-5 day event, 10 hr days...you hope everyone shows up!when things don't go as planned and then it throws not only that day into a tailspin, but screws up with the next schedule and piles it on when you don't want it to... Like my farmers cancelling
I think that more and more often. . In reality, I've worked so many years it will be strange to not get a "paycheck". I can generally set my schedule of days, cancel on a fast note, unlike your cows. The store mgrs expect you whenever, mostly.I'm a year or 2 behind you, but I too am thinking retirement might be a good thing.
It is frustrating. Especially when you have your OWN LIFE to handle. Like you, the overall economy concerns me. Not like we're in the desired age group anymore for some jobs.....so make it work a while longer. You may be less inclined to retire once those knees are fixed....especially with less farms. I was downsizing job numbers, then C19 caused many reps to quit when schools physically closed, as they worked when kids were at school. Then work increased to offset other people. It works out. Just annoying at times.and this economy worries me so I don't want to pull the plug yet.... however, when you deal with crap like cancelled farms, and your cancelled jobs... it makes you think ....DONE.....
