Description

I have a lazy ass, living on-site farmhand. He's been here for years. Lately, he doesn't want to work anymore, and his job has never been hard...he lives here for FREE for a very small amount of work. So, now, I must hire someone to do HIS work...he IS far behind though. I need someone that shows up on time and actually works. You must have your own transportation. You must know how to drive a lawn tractor with a small dump trailer behind, and pick up manure from the pasture, with a manurer rake, and dump in the back dry lot, gas power-wash a water trough, place some sprinkler heads in an underground system in my pasture...they just swivel in. Help me prime a small water pump, and if you know how to replace sheets of galvanized metal that have blown off of a shelter, repair some other sheds that would be great, but, I can hire someone else to do those things if you aren't skilled in that area. Mow my yard with a different lawn tractor, with double bags. Possibly pulling weeds. You have to be able to lift 40 pounds and be in good shape. Roll up hoses, one or two extension cords, and some other things that I may need to be done. I would love to find a new live-in ranch hand...but, I doubt mine would go willingly. IMPORTANT: While you are working...no dogs, no children, or significant others, NO drugs OR alcohol, no cell phone, and, if you smoke cigarettes (ONLY) you'd better use an ashtray. I can provide one. If you think you can steal something? I'm armed. Please wear appropriate clothes and shoes, and bring a lunch. Plan on, at most a seven-hour day. Please, no city folk...there ARE animals on a farm...they poop. There are two horses, two Nigerian Dwarf Goats, a weird sheep that doesn't have wool, and a free roaming peacock, and 5 peahens. They WILL be around you, a goat may jump on your leg for a treat, a horse may nuzzle your clothes. Be nice and polite, and you don't have to wear a mask unless you want to. Work will start at 9 am, and on Sunday. (Saturday I will be getting gas and other items). If you have a drill, please bring it, mine is not reliable, if not...we won't worry about it. If you just mow, pull some weeds, and pick up horse manure (there isn't much) the pay is 10/hour. If you can do a few repairs along with the manure, etc. The pay is 15/hour. I will not teach you how to work...you must know how to run a lawn tractor...I have three different kinds. You MUST love, and be familiar with farm animals. There WILL be a test...just kidding...about the test. You will be required to sign a release, from any accidents or injuries, while working on my farm. I won't be liable. ***If you reply, you MUST include your full name and phone number*** I will not reply back unless you do. I do not text.
