Was talking to a guy down by Madison Wis about some parts, anyway same age as me, does stuff with  tractors as he said he had some tractors on the Tesch auction, then we talked about the help situation, he mentioned the huge A I center going up near them, I know they take up a lot of ground, take a lot of electricity to run, and his thoughhts were that some jobs are going to be replaced by thic coming A I, I know nothing abouts it capabilities in the future, but he said dont worry not will take a while to replace farm labor, what are some of these people that I will say are low performers on the job going to do, we have a 18 year old kid helping just a couple of hours before school, i have never heard so many excuses of why he cant help, hasnt showed up since last monday a week ago, now said he hurt himself over the weekend, doctor told him to take some time off from work, his 70 minute job in the morning,

There was a family in my small town that all had about the same mental capacity, and it wasn’t much. They used to hire out to do manual labor on some farms. They were always completely filthy, so bad that most people didn’t even let them ride in the cab of the truck. But, a bunch of them lived in the same falling down house and they had somewhat of a life. There would be no place for them on our farm now. If A I could run a planter, I would try it. Around here, I never know when someone isn’t going to show up for a week. Make plans about what we are doing tomorrow the night before and then not come in for week. They don’t think anything of it. And these are hourly employees who do not get paid if they aren’t here.

Too far away though.

My wife is admin in a high school. If there's a problem kid it become obvious the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree when the parents are called in. The good kids all have good parents, the entitled kids have entitled parents. Although it may be a sweeping generalization most kids follow their parents teaching or lack thereof.
