NY 986: I understand trying to balance these things. The thing that they need to do is start thinking ahead.
What really set me off, when I got out to the cattle yard, was the fact he was setting on his butt inside the cab playing around on his smart Phone. He never even CHECKED to see if anything was running like it should after he started the Generator.
These cattle are only weeks away from shipping. There is close to a million dollars walking around on that farm.
I never go to any of the cattle yards/barns and not walk around and check everything out. It only takes a few minutes but can save you plenty.
IF he had a suitcase full of a million dollars of cash in his attic I bet he would check it every day.
He came to me in August with the idea of taking over more of the duties on the farm. So far he has done fairly good at it. He just gets distracted at times an drops the ball. HE worries about the long terms stuff too much and forgets to watch out for the day to day stuff.
I am seeing that they may need to switch around how they do things some. The second son is better at day to day stuff but is not a good long term guy. HE worries about today too much. I am thinking they need to work thing differently.
They have had an easy life in many ways. Maybe too easy. I may have let up too much when their Mother died. The youngest three where all small when she passed, 12,9, and 3.
