I miss farming, but I don't miss dairy farming.

Well......

....I’d tell you where I work.
But, it would probably be over your head.

I'm a self employed used copier salesman. www.certifiedcopier.com
I run everything out of my house and never need to make sales calls. All my leads come to me! I go to NYC once a month to take pictures and list my inventory. My guys in NY get the copiers ready for resale.

I also dabble in many other business ventures some of which I cannot discuss in detail as of right now. My newest one is going to be HUGE though. It's an instant remedy for acid indigestion AKA, GERD and heartburn. The website will be up in a few more weeks!

I pay with PLC's and computer controlled Conveyor systems - neat stuff, lots of trons make it tough sometimes to have them do what you want them to do.

I read your post but the part about working with your dad didn't register. At one time I worked with my grandfather (since passed), great-uncle (since passed), father, brother and uncle-in-law. It was often maddening. Now that it's down to the latter three, it's not nearly as mentally taxing. Dealing with the next generation is challenging enough. Dealing with one that's a full generation removed is far more!

I just got promoted from bag boy(front service clerk) to Grocery clerk (aka stock clerk)

Doesn't sound big but I get more hours (31 next week) and My pay is now 8.75$ an hour... Compared to 18 hours a week and 7.45 an hour...

Part time grocery clerk is a cake walk .. Fill the eggs,milk, publix 2 litre sodas,publix waters, end caps, specials, block frozen, run the floor machines..

plus I don't have to deal with customers that much.. woot.. more money to save up for an SDL
