Grew up with old style stanchion/overhead mow dairy barn.No way to utilize round bales.Squares outta the mow beat loose hay all to heck,same with straw for bedding.The two things that come to mind foremost are pickin and throwin frozen corn silage or haylidge for an hr twice a day,or later fixin a busted silo unloader(always on the coldest or hottest days and always short one tool or nut/bolt)and the second,unloadin a couple hundred bushels of manure by hand on a sub-zero winter mornin,when the spreader apron froze and busted..before the whole load became a giant turdsickle.Different problems between dairy and crop farming but things equaled out.

PS:Then there was the "longest walk",walkin a mile home from the far fields,to let Pop know his trusted kid had once again managed to plant a tractor belly deep in that"soft spot" he warned ya about :(
