We all made it.

It was a lot easier driving down the highway without a forty foot header hanging off the front of my combine.

I don't know how my boss does it. I get stressed out just driving a combine on the highway as a general rule. He sends 3 million dollars of equipment 30 miles down a heavily traveled highway at dusk in the hands of guys like me and doesn't bat an eye.

I think it has something to do with people who are white Christians. I have had Asian and Indian bosses in the past and they are nervous Nelly’s. They are the antithesis of cool, calm, and collected. Even the slightest thing that goes wrong sends them into a tizzy. And then they belabor the mistake for months after. They as a group are not worthy of leadership

Generally speaking neuroticism is a poor quality to have as a leader or manager

Nice. I want one of those to pull a lawnmower out at my dad's place.

My boss was just chasing a badger around the field with his combine. It's probably the funniest thing i've ever seen. I wish I could have gotten video.

Filters BTFO!

Got some broken plastic fingers on my header.

These fingers grab the wheat and pull it into the feeder house. They ride on a bar that is offset inside the drum so they retract as they go around.

Every so often one will break off. It never seems like it's one directly in front of the access panel though.

I fixed it.

Nom Nom Nom!

I found out today that we are selling some of our sunflower seeds to Bigs. I went ahead and bought some and this is on their package.🇺🇸

I already support you then. Between myself and my son we eat a couple of big bags a piece a weekend.

Damn, bro

@JesseJames thanks man. If you keep up the habit you might even get some I planted and harvested this year. I think a couple of fields survived the hail storm. We should start harvesting them soon.

Went to move my boss's pickup this morning and I realized that I had passengers.

Lol better than finding mexicans in there @Der Seeteufel - SD

Wow @Der Seeteufel - SD took me a while to figure out what that is

I saw him circling. I'm sorry I couldn't get better pictures but I was driving.

Haha. He must have asked you to move the truck just so he could see your reaction. That’s good.

Farming in KY, corn and soyboy beans, I was on top of the barn today sealing it off from the birds haha.

Damn I love ky.

This is a 6 cylinder diesel air compressor. We use it for blowing the grain and dust out of the combines after we're done. It's probably the worst job on the farm.

Here's a picture for scale. He hasn't started yet. Once the air is on you're almost constantly surrounded by swirling clouds of dust.

I thought I'd mention that this is the appropriate PPE for running a 170 psi air wand to blow grain dust. The old man won't wear it because he's too stubborn but real Chads wear PPE.

Nice t-shirt

@Deleted User fitness is the most important PPE

My coworker lives in a town so small that he was able to get the city to shut down the water to the whole town rather than have them dig up his yard. I love rural life.

I don't get it

@John O - his street shutoff got buried due to some earlier street work and so when the city came to replace his water meter they told him they would have to dig up his lawn to shut the water off to his house. He replied, "There's no way in hell that you're digging up my lawn for a 15 min meter swap." So he got them to shut off water to the whole damn town. It was a really funny story. Maybe it doesn't translate into text very well.

Oh, got it
