We were having a conversation earlier at work about how short staffed the dairy industry is and how just about every farm is looking for somebody. I have come up with a totally hypothetical scenario to see how true this is.
Dairyman Dave turns up at your farm gate looking for work. He is clean, tidy, polite and punctual. He is never late or skives off and can be relied on when needed. He can milk, drive tractors and do most farm jobs. So who on here would have work for him be it 2 hours a month or 7 days a week. If we were right at morning coffee, just about every farm will offer him something. Dairyman Dave obviously doesn't exist and there is unfortunately nobody looking for work that I know of but it may give a clue as to how short staffed the industry is as a whole.
