SNOBOL...

SNOBOL... Or for some, Snow Ball. As you can see she is pure white.

Two new arrivals...

Been a little busy over the weekend...
Got two new arrivals... Sandi & Doc.
A pair of Myotonic goat kids, same birth twins from same mother, about
3-4 months old.
At the moment I am looking to get at least one more doe so I can move
Doc in with the other bucks.

Sandi: Doeling...

Overtime Rant...

Loosing my job is always a thought in my mind... I kept mine, somebody
else lost theirs... I am still paying a price.
It is ironic that people and employers depend on each other to survive
yet employers cut people as business slows down...
When you think about it, it is backwards...
Cutting workers eventually cuts your profit which eventually means
employers eventually cut more people... See the vicious circle?
For the employer I work for, their response has been to cut out second
shift and dump the work onto first...
I am not saying that there has been enough work for two shifts, but
having spent months working 10 hour days and sacrificing my time begs
the question...
Would it not been worth keeping both shifts and reducing the number of
days worked?
Working less than eight hours a day every day would be a kick in the
backside, but working two or three eight to ten hour days and
maintaining your workforce seems like a more tolerable move to me.

Trailer For Sale / SOLD!

With a little bit of regret I have sold the trailer... Good trailer
for the price to start but way too big! Considering I have no adequate
truck to pull it with, and no good land to raise cattle, selling the
trailer seemed like the best business decision to make... Keeping an
open trailer, which should be kept under a shelter, meant a trailer
that was losing its value.
