There are a lot of of young bucks on drugs these days!
A neighbour has had his loader, tractor and pickup wrecked all within a month by a family member on drugs.
The same fellow went to spread slurry for another neighbour and got paid in cocaine!!!

Don't know what the law is in Eire, but in the UK the farmer is responsible for all H&S issues on his property. If you even suspect (no proof needed) that someone is operating machinery while unfit due to drink or drugs, you will be held responsible should anything happen. Doesn't make any difference if they work for a contractor

Don't think it's just drugs, I think their brains get addled with things like outdoing their mates with stupid TickTock ideas. If ever I caught my Son or anyone acting like that in a bull pen, I'd give them such a dressing down they'd never forget it

Oh the Joy's of guidance!

Now I wonder why mother regs have come one to make modern tractors stop when you leave the seat?

It’s all fun and games until you die. I’ve never even been on TikTok but it seems to be full of utter strokers.

The swear filter on here is remarkably good, I actually spelt w @ n kers with at @ and it still got it

I was under the impression farming was viewed as 'boring' by the youth? Quite the opposite from the looks of things especially 'The Grass', it's the go-to summer job for nutters

There's a few that road test it on a fairly regular basis

Going off topic but what does cocaine actually do? Can’t really understand why anyone would freely sniff up an unknown white powder. My manager is into it big time turning him into a total train wreck rather rapidly

By all accounts it is the middle class party drug; handed round at the more swish dinner parties, I'm told.
Hasten to say it's not a scene I am acquainted with.

Any truth in this @Bald Rick ?

JohnBoy · May 27, 2020

I'm sure many of us have done dumb things in our youth, I know that dude diffing the quad down the road felt very familliar.

but why post videos of yourself doing it

Bloke " riding " the Massey ain't got no head. Maybe that's part of the problem.

Sioooooolage seems to be a game these days. When I think back to my dad taking weeks to clear 10 acres with one tractor and a side mounted single chop harvester...... ?
Farming, generally, seems to have lost the plot.

Ffermer Bach · May 27, 2020

I would be so upset, if someone was doing anything like that here.

It absolutely beggars belief. The World Wide Web etc just gave all idiots an audience.
